Fun fact

It might sound poetic, but it’s true: we’re all made of stardust. According to a number of studies, 97% of the atoms we’re made of (carbon, oxygen, iron, nitrogen, calcium, etc.) originate from within stars that disintegrated and whose dust collected on the surface of the Earth during its formation around 4 billion years ago. So if you’re ever feeling down, remember – we’re all made of stars!
