Technetium
The 43rd element is Technetium. It has the atomic symbol Tc. My knowledge of this element is very limited. In my research for this blog I discovered it it radioactive - a bye product of the radioactive decay of uranium. It has no biological role and is not found in nature. Apparently it was the first element to be synthesized. It was made by bombarding molybdenum with deuterium.
