The interesting part for me is not that they created oxygen 28 but that when created it behaved completely differently than they expected from their current theory. Stable vs emitting 4 neutrons to become oxygen 24.
Any experiment that ends with "that is not what we expected" is a source of new inquiry.
“That is not what we expected” is the start of real research and fun.
