Good news. This new element is named after the astronomer Copernicus. As such, element number 112 will be named
Copernicum, with the element symbol of
Cp.
Darn. Yet another element to learn!
Will element Number
113 (a prime number, incidentially) therefore now be named
Galileoium, followed by
Tychonium,
Keplerium and
Newtonium?
