We Are All Stardust: The Cosmic Origins of Life

The Eagle Nebula reminds us of our celestial origins, where everything around us and within us comes from the stars. The Hubble Space Telescope has transformed our understanding of the universe, revealing the cosmic processes that led to the formation of elements essential for life. Stars act as nature's chemists, transforming hydrogen into every element in the periodic table and providing the heat and light crucial for existence on Earth. Following supernova explosions, these elements spread throughout the universe, giving rise to life and the very atoms that compose our beings. We are all made of stardust.

Presentation Transcript

  1. We are all… STARDUST

  2. If we look closely at the Eagle Nebula we can see the foundation of everything around us, and everything we are made of.

  3. FROM “HUBBLE” BEGININGS

  4. With a little help from technology and human innovation the Hubble Space Telescope has given us a glimpse into how everything began, the formation of our world and where we all came from.

  5. Stars are the ultimate chemists. Through their life and death they take Hydrogen and turn it into every element in the periodic table and provide the necessary heat and light to support life on Earth.

  6. A huge ball of nuclear fusion our sun is a key to daily life on Earth.

  7. …..but where did all of these elements come from to supply the building blocks of life?

  8. Everything around us came from elements created in nuclear fusion from stars.

  9. Supernova spread the elements through all of the Universe.

  10. NOT EVERY STAR GOES SUPERNOVA.

  11. …THE AFTERMATH OF THE SUPERNOVA IS ALL THE ELEMENTS NEEDED TO CREATE HOME.

  12. INCLUDING EACH ELEMENT THAT MAKES UP OUR BODIES.

  13. WE ARE ALL STARDUST.
