About 97% of the human body is made up of elements that originated in stars, including carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, and sulfur. These elements were produced in the cores of stars and released into space when these stars exploded as supernovae. This cosmic connection highlights the idea that we are, quite literally, made of stardust. Thus, while not literally composed of stardust, the elements that make up our bodies have a stellar heritage.
