History	The element Astatine was discovered by R. Corson,R. MacKenzie and E. Segrè in year 1940 in United States. Astatine derived its name from the Greek astatos, 'unstable'.	The element Sulfur was discovered by Chinese/Indians in year Before 2000 BCE. Sulfur derived its name from the Latin word sulphur, 'fire and brimstone'.
