      Unless any of us work in a nuclear physics lab we wil not discover new elements.
      The 92 naturally ocurring elements are known and new ones are man made in specialist labs. Maybe that would interest you? It would be cool as you get to name the element as well!!

      As Michael says, unless we’re nuclear physicists we’re not going to find new elements.

      None of us are likely to find new elements but there’s plenty of new living species to discover which is just as exciting!
