We are on spaceship Earth (it really should be called Water) and a large part of the instrument panel is in the sky. The everchanging sky tells us when to to wake up, go to sleep, get to the pub before it shuts, plant crops and many more. It also has a garden of plants at various stages of development to give us an insight into the eons that have passed so that we may exist.

Every atom in your body and all you see around (that is not Hydrogen or Helium) you was made in the core of a star. The elements heavier than iron were made in many novae and supernovae.

It is that simple!
