: If you have ever wondered how we get from the awesome impersonality of the :
: Big Bang universe to the point where living creatures can start to form, :
: and evolve into beings like you, your friends and your family, wonder no :
: more. Steve Miller provides us with a tour through the chemical evolution :
: of the universe, from the formation of the first molecules all the way to :
: the chemicals required for life to evolve. Using a simple Hydrogen molecule:
: - known as H-three-plus - as a guide, he takes us on a journey that starts :
: with the birth of the first stars, and how, in dying, they pour their :
: hearts out into enriching the universe in which we live. :
