English: Updating the periodic table, Albert Ghiorso inscribes "Lw" (lawrencium) in space 103; codiscoverers (l. to r.) Robert Latimer, Dr. Torbjorn Sikkeland, and Almon Larsh look on approvingly.

It is the first of the trans- uranium elements to be identified entirely by nuclear, rather than by chemical, means. JG
