Discover the hidden story of Rhenium (element 75) — one of the rarest metals on Earth and the last naturally occurring element ever discovered. This educational science documentary explores the fascinating history of rhenium’s discovery in 1925, its incredible physical and chemical properties, and its vital applications in modern technology.

Learn why rhenium is so valuable: it’s denser than gold, melts at over 3,000°C (5,400°F), and powers the jet engines that keep us flying. You’ll also see how this rare transition metal is produced from molybdenite ore, why it’s crucial in superalloys, catalysts, and clean energy, and how its discovery closed a chapter in periodic table history.

If you love chemistry, physics, or materials science, this video will take you deep into the world of one of the most extraordinary elements ever found.

Watch now and uncover the science, history, and mystery behind rhenium — the last natural element on the periodic table.
