An original song for Science Report. A description of everything that was made in the Big Bang--all the particles that formed all the chemicals that formed all the planets that formed all life!
Big Bang Nucleosynthesis
In the Beginning there was Nothing
And then Big Bang!
The Cosmic soup expanded and cooled
the particle zoo was born in the goo
photons, bosons, gluons, gravitons
Energy radiation-Watch Out!
Inflation!
Superstrings wiggling in space-time
Temperatures drop and the forces divide.
Up, down, bottom, top, charmed and strange
quarks stick together with glueball and chain
to form protons and neutrons, mesons and leptons
baryons and anyons and on and on and on?
Gravity attracts and galaxies form.
Stars burn up and the elements are born:
Hydrogen, Helium, Lithium, Beryllium, Boron, Carbon
Nitrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine, Sodium, Magnesium,
Aluminum, and Silicon and on and on and on!
These are the things that everything is made of
chemical, mineral, vegetable and animal!
Big Bang!
