I am named for planet Neptune
named for the god of the sea
by bombarding Uranium
is how they came up with me
and that in itself is ironic
because theoretically
I might be very useful
for weapon technology

Neptunium named for Neptune the last planet in our
system
The Roman god the sailors knew that you could not
resist him
and like my namesake in the sky so very far away
if critical mass is reached with me the earth will be
blown away

for nuclear transmutation
a candidate am I
the first actinide transuranian
made in history
trace amounts of me can be found
occurring naturally
but most of me is man made
in the lab at Berkely

Neptunium named for Neptune the last planet in our
system
The Roman god the sailors knew that you could not
resist him
and like my namesake in the sky so very far away
if critical mass is reached with me the earth will be
blown away
