Almost everything on Earth is made up of atoms, but where do these fundamental building blocks come from?

The question of where atoms comes from requires a lot of physics to be answered completely — and even then, physicists only have good guesses to explain how some atoms are formed.

Researchers have proposed a groundbreaking solution to the problem of nuclear waste — one that could transform how we manage it.
