Alien Worlds.... Alien Elements?

[QUOTE="Bab5space, post: 6274574, member: 667452"] The perodic table we learn in school. All the stuff on it is found on Earth, and some of it (not all of it) we can find on other worlds. So it got me thinking, what about alien scifi worlds? Unobtanium is a common scifi trope, and all too often scifi humans envy aliens having unobtanium. But I thought it can and should... go both ways. What I mean is... yeah, aliens might have power crystals that take months before melting while emitting fusion level energies. Yet they may lack uranium and plutonium, and may have never made a nuke before. So they might want to trade their crystals for our uranium. What kinds of unobtanium tropes could in theory be possible? High energy yielding power crystals? Superconducting magnetic liquids? [/QUOTE]
