Question to anyone...
Was all the lithium in the universe created during the Big Bang?
Or - is some lithium still being produced inside stars at various stages of star birth-life-death?
Thanks!
All but two of the lithium isotopes are radioactive with very short half-lives. They transform almost as soon as they are created.
Probably.
There is no certainty where the universe is concerned but it is probable that in the chaos of star stuff some lithium is forming
A corollary question is when the earth is sucked into the black hole, will lithium be destroyed despite the law of Conservation of Mass
