There is no evidence that ununpentium is useful in "anti-gravity emitters." That's just from a claim by Bob Lazar who I wouldn't, to put it nicely, consider to be a reputable source.

Why it is not so easy to make here in our galaxy?
It isn't easy to make anywhere. Don't expect it to be more abundant in other solar systems or even other galaxies. It's a very heavy element. The 115 isotopes we can make have such a short half life it's a bit of a trick doing anything with the stuff before it decays. There might be a more stable isotope, but it is unknown how stable, and we don't see any of it around in nature.
