While I enjoyed the episode, it seemed to jump around quite a bit more than other episodes. From photosynthesis to carbon atoms to neutrinos to supernovas to the early Greeks.
I know there was a theme here, but it didn't seem like it segued between the individual topics very smoothly.
I had never really thought about how the different chemicals are formed by fusion in stars. Somehow I always thought it was just hydrogen fusion in all stars. Cool to think that there is some star out there fusing together gold and platinum that will eventually spit that all into space when it explodes.
