SUMMARY:Life Under Blazing Stars: Supernova Mysteries featuring Dr. Georgios Perdikakis
DESCRIPTION:
 We value the rarest of elements we can find on 
 Earth. We use them in technology, art, and jewelry. 
 We need these elements to sustain our 
 living bodies. As resources run out, we turn 
 to quests for new habitable worlds to mine. 
 To uncover how the fateful pattern of element 
 compositions came to be in our corner of the 
 universe (or elsewhere), we will need to understand 
 thousands of nuclear reactions in stars 
 and predict their outcome.\n
 \n
 Most of these 
 reactions with the mysterious isotopes that 
 live and die inside blazing stars have not been 
 observed yet. But with a facility in East 
 Lansing that will make supernova isotopes into 
 beams, it's only a matter of time before new 
 discoveries will be made.\n
