Dubnium not have enough experimental data to back their claim. After collecting more data, JINR proposed the name "nielsbohrium" (Ns) in honor of the Danish nuclear physicist Niels Bohr, a founder of the theories of atomic structure and quantum theory. When LBL first announced their synthesis of element 105, they proposed that the new element be named "hahnium" (Ha) after the German chemist Otto Hahn, the "father of nuclear chemistry", thus creating an element naming controversy. In the early 1970s, both teams reported synthesis of the next element, element 106, but did not suggest names. JINR suggested establishing an international committee
Otto Hahn (ship) its primary purpose. It contained cabins for the group of about 36 scientists. It also contained a conference room, a meeting room and two laboratories. Its main purpose was to gain experience of future nuclear ships which could be used for transport. As the "Otto Hahn" did not receive enough permissions from harbours, the experiments ended in 1979, ten years after commissioning. Until its decommissioning, the Otto Hahn visited 33 ports in 22 countries, most of them in South America and Africa. It did not receive permission to pass through the Suez Canal and its last journey was to Durban.
