"The Element Hunters"
An (original) short film covering the discovery of elements 99, 100 and 101 by Albert Ghiorso and his colleagues at the Rad Lab in Berkeley (1951-1955). The work was done under Glenn Seaborg’s general direction with members of the Rad Lab’s Chemistry Division, which later became the Nuclear Science Division.
