༆In 1898, Marie discovered a new element that was 400 times more radioactive than any other.

༆They named it “polonium,” after her native country.

༆Later that year, the Curies announced the existence of another element they called “radium,” from the Latin word for “ray.” It gave off 900 times more radiation than polonium.

Marie was getting homesick so she named this new element "polonium", after her homeland. After removing the polonium, pitchblende was still radioactive. Marie called the second radioactive element "radium", which is Latin for "ray". ... When they went to the shed at night, they could see the radium glowing.
