Not being a physicist or having ever studied physics, the only thing I can say is that I really like the agglomeration of large masses of particles that draws more and more together. Just like humans.

But I did study some philosophy. 😅

Nice explanation! “The cosmos is within us. We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself.” Carl Sagan. Class dismissed! ☄️

I live at the airport and this goes way over my head! I get the gist of some of this and I know gravity always wins.

Dust to dust, elements to elements, particles to particles.

Now how about parallel universes and quantum and chaos theories to wrap up? ;)

I found this both fascinating and easy to understand. Generally speaking, I can barely comprehend mathematics, but this made sense to me.

“We are stardust, we are golden, we are billion year old carbon”.

I don’t pretend to understand the math behind this, but I love your explanation. Of course this is how we came to be; it makes much more sense than pretending there’s a being in the clouds.
