Yup, you probably don’t know what the hell I’m talking about and for the most part, I don’t as well. The triple alpha phenomenon is the process by which carbon is formed. Take a look at this article and you might get an idea. From my understanding, the process can happen only in a .0000026 of a second before helium becomes too unstable for formation (see this article for more info).
Why you ask is this important? Carbon it the main ingredient in us and earth and this process explains that there is a “supreme being”. I like to call Him Father, most call him God. This is my scientific apologetic.
This concludes our lesson for today. Class Dismissed.
