Millions of years ago a star blew up

and blew our atoms out into space

they floated in space for

millions of years

and ended up on Earth

So you came from outer space

Do you want to see an alien?

One day

One day the Sun will blow up

HOT

Ouch!

Exploding star blowing gas and red dust into space (Mike Jura,

ucla)

and atoms

are made in

stars

Our Sun is a Star

So you came from outer space

Look in a mirror

You’ll see an alien

We are all aliens because our

atoms came from outer space

All your atoms

were made a very long time ago

inside a star

a bit like our Sun

Where did our atoms come from?

That star exploded

millions of years ago

and blew your atoms into space

They floated around in space for millions

of years
