without a doubt, In my mind, this is the most beautiful and inspiring knowledge that science has given us.

Full quote:
"The amazing thing is that every atom in your 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. You couldn’t be here if stars hadn’t exploded, because the elements - the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, iron, all the things that matter for evolution - weren’t created at the beginning of time. They were created in the nuclear furnaces of stars, and the only way they could get into your body is if those stars were kind enough to explode. So, forget Jesus. The stars died so that you could be here today."

I didn't notice this picture until i saw it in your book. I find this piece very inspiring and I totally agree with you on this one. One day when I develop a stronger talent for art, I would like to use it to promote the wonders of science and skepticism as you have done in this piece.

I have been reading Carl Sagan lately and one of his quotes particularly sticks we,ith m

"The beauty of a living thing is not the atoms that go into it but the way the atoms are put together. The cosmos is also within us. We're made of star stuff, we are a way for the cosmos to know itself."

Awe inspiring.. I've never really put it in that perspective. It's all just been a thing that went *bang* that formed the atoms and the atoms formed the molecules and so forth xD

Very nicely done!
