Vincent van Gogh, Nuit Étoilée sur le Rhône (1888, Musée d'Orsay, Paris)

-

Every atom in our body came

from a star that exploded.

And the atoms in your left

hand probably came from a

different star than your

right hand.

It really is the most poetic

thing I know about physics:

You are all stardust.
