Finally, were close to Fullmetal Alchemist being real, which unfortunately means were close to Nina Tucker being real. So, its a give and take.

So, who's going to be the first to try to create a Philosopher's Stone?

Presumably no countries would be this insane to allow that to happen. Presumably.

I bet someone tries. It was believed anyone who creates one becomes immortal as a side effect. So someone will attempt it

I always knew alchemy was just rudimentary chemistry.

Nuclear chemistry, as it turns out.

Wow! I was just talking to my niece yesterday about how she hated biology but she's looking forward to chemistry next year because it's the most like alchemy, and I told her that ACKCHUALLY particle physics would be the most like alchemy because they can actually use the LHC to crash atoms into each other and add or remove protons which does turn them into different elements, but only in very very small quantities. I'm gonna have to remember to show her this article if we see my bro's family again today. They are in town from the next state over this weekend.

I believe the previous incident used bismuth, rather than lead.

Edit: https://www.aaas.org/taxonomy/term/10/glenn-seaborg-scientist-and-public-servant "Seaborg capped his scientific career in 1980 by transmuting several thousand atoms of bismuth into gold, thus uniting nuclear physics with the ancient field of alchemy."

If we had a strong enough power source, would it be possible to turn large chunks of an element into another one?

Yes that is exactly it. And it is heart breaking. The girls father is the alchemist responsible and the dog is their familys.
