Like fossil fuels come from organic matter that grew because of the sun. Is there any form of energy on that cannot be traced back to the sun in some way?

    OP said the sun, indicating they meant our sun. Other commenters have clarified that fissile material (and a shit-ton of the other stuff further down the periodic table) didn’t come from our sun, but other suns.

      I mean ya okay I see that. But still very neat that all energy in every form we have can be traced back to a star if not our own star. That’s so interesting! Let’s get started on the Dyson sphere.
