@evanthorizon: The Sun is (at least) a third-generation star! Stellar metallicity reveals a grand cosmic story of how earlier stars lived, died, and seeded the universe with all of its fundamental ingredients! ✨ #TikTokEncyclopediaContest #Astronomy #spacetok #physics

tyleradams :

so basically it's a grandsun

Michael McBride :

damn so sun is a nepo baby? 😢 that sucks I was a huge fan

Zinc also tells a very, very ancient story too. Zinc only comes from the core of stars, but we require it for human fertility. We are star dust.

noita_ahava :

Space is so metal 🤘

Theprofessorbugman :

ANOTHER FUN FACT: the presence of gold on our planet indicates that our solar system, at least partially, was formed from the aftermath of a collision between two neutron stars, as solar fusion cannot make anything heavier than iron.

luigislilpissbaby :

So some star particles become sentient and some just become another star. This is bs. Why did I get the sentient one.

chava_nice_day :

Everything past Helium being a metal in the chemistry equivalent of ‘pi equals 10’ which you can do in astrophysics because the scales are so big it doesn’t matter 😂

ventus :

so basically the other two generations said "for those who come after"
