  2. Lanthanite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lanthanite

    The lanthanite crystal structure consists of layers of 10-fold coordinated REE-oxygen (O) polyhedra and carbonate (CO 3 2−) groups connected by hydrogen bonds to interlayer water molecules, forming a highly hydrated structure.

    Contains about 56,000 galaxies, located 820 million light years away. BOSS Great Wall (BGW) (2016) 1,000,000,000: Structure consisting of 4 superclusters of galaxies. The mass and volume exceeds the amount of the Sloan Great Wall. [21] Perseus–Pegasus Filament (1985) 1,000,000,000: This galaxy filament contains the Perseus–Pisces Supercluster.

    It consisted of two representatives of each Xindi species and was created to find a new homeworld for all the Xindi races. Although they found a few suitable planets, they could never agree on a final choice. The Council chamber is located on a world 15.6 light-years from Azati Prime. The land-based races sit at a large round table in the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rare-earth_element

    The rare-earth elements (REE), also called the rare-earth metals or rare earths, and sometimes the lanthanides or lanthanoids (although scandium and yttrium, which do not belong to this series, are usually included as rare earths), [1] are a set of 17 nearly indistinguishable lustrous silvery-white soft heavy metals.

  6. Period 6 element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Period_6_element

    A period 6 element is one of the chemical elements in the sixth row (or period) of the periodic table of the chemical elements, including the lanthanides.The periodic table is laid out in rows to illustrate recurring (periodic) trends in the chemical behaviour of the elements as their atomic number increases: a new row is begun when chemical behaviour begins to repeat, meaning that elements ...

  7. Lanthanide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lanthanide

    Lanthanide oxides: clockwise from top center: praseodymium, cerium, lanthanum, neodymium, samarium and gadolinium. The chemistry of the lanthanides is dominated by the +3 oxidation state, and in Ln III compounds the 6s electrons and (usually) one 4f electron are lost and the ions have the configuration [Xe]4f (n−1).

  8. Observable universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observable_universe

    Assuming the universe is isotropic, the distance to the edge of the observable universe is roughly the same in every direction. That is, the observable universe is a spherical region centered on the observer. Every location in the universe has its own observable universe, which may or may not overlap with the one centered on Earth.

    L 2 is the Lagrange point located approximately 1.5 million kilometers from Earth in the direction opposite the Sun. Spacecraft at the Sun–Earth L 2 point are in a Lissajous orbit until decommissioned, when they are sent into a heliocentric graveyard orbit. [citation needed]
