As a child, I was fascinated with titanium. I remember reading about how the USA didn’t have enough titanium to make the SR-71 spy plane and had to secretly buy some on the open market. That lifted Titanium into the mythical, ultra-rare status for me.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI was what you might call a below-average student in high school, but I can remember one pivotal moment. It was one of those moments that you don’t realize were important until years later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy physics teacher passed around an earring made from titanium for us each to briefly handle. It was my first experience actually holding this mythical metal. My brain had a hard time processing the thin, spiral design that was as strong as steel but felt as light as plastic. It didn’t feel real.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom that point on, I was in love with the sciences and ended up with a physics degree a few years later. Inspired by the birth of my son, I started Esington and trance metals to reconnect with my love for pure metal. This solid kilogram Titanium cube would have totally blown my mind as a child.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy hope is that this Kilogram cube of solid titanium will inspire you and those around you and just maybe end up being the spark that could change the course of a young person’s mind, just like it did mine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTrance Success\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe have raised over $1.2 million here on Kickstarter!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2015, we launched the KILO Tungsten cube and raised $487,241.

In 1801, English chemist Charles Hatchett found a new element in that mineral sample and named it columbium. In 1802, Swedish scientist Anders Ekberg discovered tantalum, but it was confused with niobium because of its twinned properties, until 1864, when it was recognized as a separate element. In 1949, Niobium was officially adopted as the name of the element.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eNiobium is a lustrous, gray, ductile metal with a high melting point, relatively low density, and superconductor properties.
