Synopsis "Somos polvo de estrellas (in Spanish)"

El material estelar no pertenece solo al espacio. En Somos polvo de estrellas, José Maza nos guía a través de un increíble viaje que conecta las transformaciones del universo con las revoluciones científicas en la Tierra, relacionando la formación de las estrellas con nuestro propio organismo. Con datos e información privilegiada, el Premio Nacional de Ciencias Exactas (1999) nos narra de manera cálida y cercana cómo la historia del cosmos es también nuestra, y que no podemos perder esa curiosidad con la que miramos el mundo cuando fuimos niños, pues es esa la llave del conocimiento.
