Neptunium is notable for being the first transuranic element, discovered in 1940. It is primarily produced through the irradiation of uranium in nuclear reactors and has applications in nuclear research and potential use in nuclear batteries. Neptunium is radioactive, with several isotopes, the most stable of which is Neptunium-237, having a half-life of approximately 2.14 million years.
