- The New Yorker wondered why they had not gone for broke, naming these two universitium and offium so as to reserve berkelium and californium for the next two elements.
- All known isotopes of berkelium are radioactive, with the longest-lived being berkelium - 247, with a half life of 1,380 years.
- Berkelium does not occur naturally in the biosphere and so normally never presents a risk.
