Ununoctium was first made at Dunba in Russia at the Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions. It was first made in 2002 and later more of it was made in 2005. A beam of <sup>48</sup><sub>20</sub> calcium was fired at <sup>249</sup><sub>98</sub> californium. Specifically it was 2.5 x 10<sup>19</sup> calcium ions. This caused a synthesis of ununoctium. Also three neutrons were released during the experiment. The formula for this process is <sup>249</sup><sub>98</sub>Cf +<sup>48</sup><sub>20</sub>Ca→<sup>294</sup><sub>118</sub>Uuo + 3<sup>1</sup>n. <ref name=azom>Author, unknown.
