EAST HARTFORD, Conn., Dec. 8, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- To nourish the interest of young girls in STEM, four female characters created for The Stardust Mystery story are excellent role models. The girls discover the amazing Stardust Mystery story of how humans are made of Stardust pieces (atoms) that were once in the bodies of Albert Einstein and the Last T-Rex. The girls and 3 boys (age 11 to 13) are on a fictional time-travel adventure to discover and tell the non-fiction science story of Stardust. The story is told in videos, video games, short stories, student projects and a book.
The story explains how atoms were created in the explosive death of stars occurring shortly after the Big Bang and continuing to today. It explains how these atoms have been shared during the history of planet Earth by plants and animals including Einstein, the Last T-Rex, and ourselves. It explores the structure, types, sizes, numbers, and arrangements of atoms.
