The atoms that comprise life on earth, that make up the human body, are traceable to the crucibles that cooked light elements into heavy elements in their core.
These stars, the high mass ones among them, they collapsed and then exploded, scattering their enriched guts across the galaxy.
Guts made of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and all the fundamental ingredients of life.
These ingredients become part of gas clouds that condense, collapse, form the next generation of solar systems (stars with orbiting planets), and those planets now have the ingredients for life itself.
So that when I look up at the night sky, and I know that yes we are part of this universe, we are in this universe.
But perhaps more important than both of those facts is that the universe is in us.
When I reflect on that fact, I look up.
Many people feel small, cause their small and the universe is big, but I feel big.
Because my atoms came from those stars.
