Arguments about the Periodic Table? My mind is blown

 

If anything screams "established science" it is the image of the periodic table.

Invented 152 years ago, it now adorns the walls of every high school science classroom on the planet. 

I knew there had been changes over the years -- those two rows at the bottom especially turn out to be the fruit of discoveries subsequent to Dmitri Mendeleev. 

So I recently did some googling, looking for celebratory articles about this two years ago, as the icon passed the 150 years mark. 

What I  found was disturbing. The mountains may crumble and Gibraltar may tumble type of disturbing.
