[challenge entry] Stars
All the happy like to say 'we're all made of star dust'
But what the hell does that mean, I bet star dust never got stuck in a dead end job with no hope of escape, its greatest worry is whether or not to fuse with another bit of star dust or not, its pitiful. So basically we're not all stars and we never will be, deal.

# because in the beginning there was the big bang
after that came stars. in stars hydrogen undergoes fusion into helium (and produces vast amounts of EM radiation etc etc). if the star is big enough eventually this helium will start to fuse etc, and then the products of that will fuse until iron is produced. when this happens the star blows up. the stuff from this explosion goes on to make planets (and incidentally other stars), including earth. hence all the materials on earth, and all the life that subsequently evolved from this is quite literally made from what was once stars - hence star dust.

duh...
