  • We Are Star Stuff Supernova Reflection

  • Discussing the cosmic origin of heavy elements in the human body.

  • Processed Through Supernovas

    • On May 20, 2017, I shared a conversation with a friend regarding the origins of the human body's elements.
    • I noted that every heavy element in our bodies has been processed through at least three supernovas to reach that point on the periodic table.
    • I referenced Carl Sagan's famous quote: "We are literally star stuff."
These facts are as Randal recalls them, but much time has passed for most of this. If you find a factual error, please email realmerlyn@gmail.com.
