Maybe it's not really new, but officially given now, or it was a name that looks a lot like it. Google gave way too many results about this new element that finally has been given its name so did not search too long (and it is way too slow here, my web 'm walk connection). The impact of this finding is not clear to me, which, not being into science, makes sense.
