Element Breakdown
Rubidium (Rb)
Rubidium was discovered in 1861 by Robert Bunsen (yes, the Bunsen burner guy) and Gustav Kirchhoff using a brand-new technique called spectroscopy — they identified it by the beautiful deep red spectral lines it produced.
Iodine (I)
Iodine was discovered by accident in 1811 when Bernard Courtois, a French saltpeter manufacturer, added too much sulfuric acid to seaweed ash and saw beautiful violet fumes rising up.
Dysprosium (Dy)
Dysprosium gets its name from the Greek word 'dysprositos,' meaning 'hard to get at,' because it was extremely difficult to isolate from other rare earth elements.
Germanium (Ge)
Germanium is named after Germany, the homeland of its discoverer Clemens Winkler, who found it in 1886.
