Natural tantalum (73Ta) consists of two isotopes: observationally stable 181Ta (99.988%) and 180mTa (0.012%). There are also 35 known artificial radioisotopes, the longest-lived of which are 179Ta with a half-life of 1.82 years, 182Ta with a half-life of 114.74 days, 183Ta with a half-life of 5.1 days, and 177Ta with a half-life of 56.46 hours.
