Over billions of years, hydrogen left on its own collapsed under gravity into stars, under went fusion, supernovaed, created all the heavier elements, formed secondary stars and rocky plants, evolved into creatures, which learnt chemistry and gave it a name. We’re all stardust + time basically. But we’re stardust that names itself.
Hydrogen, if left on its own long enough, names itself.
That’s a wild way to think about the universe. Gonna steal this
How do you mean?
