It seems Bob Lazar DID state the isotope of 115.

There are a few people who have queried why Bob Lazar knows the atomic number of the spacecraft "fuel" (number of protons - 115), but never mentions the mass number (protons + neutrons). This information would be useful because the theory of an island of stability is predicated on getting the number of protons and neutrons correct - thus far, all isotopes of 115 produced are unstable.

Well, there is a diary of Joe Vaninetti (one of Bob's close friends circa 1989) online. This diary notes down information Bob appears to have offered over 8 or so months. This diary states that the atomic weight of 115 is 271.

This would put the number of neutrons at 156. This is basically as far away from the theorized magic neutron numbers of 126 and 184 as you could get. If a 115 sample is to be stable, it is assumed that the neutron shells will be closed at a neutron number of 184. Of course, humans may be way off with our theories on the island of stability...

EDIT: the clowns on r/ufos censored this post on their sub. Why would they do this?

For example does hydrogen and deuterium have the same electron energy levels or do they depend on neutrons too?

Geochemist Minoru Ozima of the Tokyo University discovered that the nitrogen-14/nitrogen-15 isotope ratio in the Apollo lunar samples is very different from that in the solar wind whose blasts drilled these atoms into the lunar soil. The explanation is simple—the Apollo's soil was made on earth.

So the explanation for the earthly nitrogen in the Apollo lunar samples now given by scientists is that the nitrogen was blown off the earth by solar winds -before the earth's magnetic field was established. not that the lunar dust was manufactured on Earth.

Abundancy of isotope greater than 100%?

I am having trouble answering this question and would like some guidance:

Germanium has 5 common isotopes, a sample contains the following:

70Ge (57.4%), 72Ge (75.9%), 73Ge (21.3%), 74Ge (100%), 76Ge (21.0%) What is the average atomic mass of the sample?

I just multiplied 70x(0.574) + 72x(0.759) etc. since that is what you normally do. But since the percentages add up to a number higher than 100, should I do anything different? I ended up with 200.39 amu
