Human made of stardust 🌟, say scientists

We may all be made of stardust 🌟, say scientists

Supercomputer simulations conducted by a team of astrophysicists, at Northwestern University, suggest that each of us may have been expelled vast distances across the universe by exploding supernovas.

When thrown into space at such force, streams of charged atoms are blasted away from their original galaxy's gravitational pull and carried to our Milky Way on "powerful galactic winds."

Daniel Angles-Alcazar, a postdoctoral fellow at Northwestern in Illinois who led the study, told CNN that the team created intricate 3-D models which allowed the team to explore the evolution of galaxies over time.

"We ran highly sophisticated simulations, looking at the formation of galaxies from shortly after the Big Bang and traced their development to today," Angles-Alcazar.

He also said, "We found that when we completed these simulations that we could say ... that the atoms which formed the solar system 🌞 and so which form us, may have existed in other galaxies." 😱
