My dad heard on NPR that gold is made out of exploding stars that come to the 
planets or such so he asked me to do some research so it brought me to asking you 
the question please answer. Thank You!

[Moderator adds: I believe that Sybil's dad heard this August 7 story by Alice 
Furlaud on NPR about gold. -- SM]
