Lusnium is a strange new element, discovered by a trio of explorers on an expedition to discover the source of several strange pillars of light on the planet CYN, located in the UI-6 system. At the center of the light pillars, they found a large column of the mysterious element, and brought back a sample for research. Lusnium, or Ls, is located on the second island of stability on the periodic table. It doesn't fit into any pre-existing category, so it's currently in its own category simply titled 'Anomalous' until it is further understood. It is believed that Ls forms naturally, however, the conditions for this are as of yet unknown, but it does seem to appear most often around areas of higher than average ECF (Environmental Cuil Factor).
The practical uses of Lusnium are few. Its' ability to produce light when exposed to electricity is currently being looked into, in the hopes that it may have some militaristic potential. It's main downfall is its' rarity, at the moment.
No variants or isotopes of Lusnium are known to exist at the moment. Attempts to synthesize one have all resulted in failure. Lusnium is capable of forming compounds with other substances, but so far none have found any use.
