Takeaway
  • Recommended or revised 7 times between 1902 and 2024 (first record 1902, latest revision 1985).
  • Both revisions whose previous recommendation had an uncertainty kept the new value inside the previous (expanded) range.
  • The current standard atomic weight is 137.327(7) (recommended in 1985).
