	Weaving a World with Light Photosynthesis and Our Daily Bread Article about Photosynthesis and its cosmological significance Earthlight Magazine, USA Spring 2004	...We stand today discovering our origins at multiple points in the evolution of the universe—from its very first seconds of existence, through the grand galaxies of stars, to those especially huge stars that explode, with their payload of 92 chemical elements from which solar systems can be made.
