Old article, but still cool. I only know about physics from pulp sci-fi novels but the "Island of stability" makes me wonder if sci-fi exotic materials sufficient to make megastructures might actually be possible.

    I'm worse than useless as far as chemistry goes, but from tiny I tell myself to understand, bigger elements are probably useless novelties for anything but fission, the real useful stuff are probably going to micro/nano engineered mega-molecules like graphene.
