An experiment performed in the Accelerator Laboratory of University of Jyväskylä, Finland, has succeeded in producing a previously unknown atomic nucleus, 190-Astatine, consisting of 85 protons and 105 neutrons. The nucleus is the lightest isotope of astatine discovered to date.
The new discovery was made by Kokkonen, who recently graduated with a Master of Science degree. The study was a part of her master's thesis, and the research is published in the journal Physical Review C.
Imagine being a fresh masters graduate and this is the first thing you do lol, during your thesis even. Woman is living the dream out there
You get a lot of cool stuff coming at the master's level. You get a dedicated year of research, but unlike a PhD you don't have a mininum number of publications required, so advisers tend to give out riskier projects at that level.

My master’s thesis was basically just some coding gruntwork as part of a larger project
