From the Stars
Neon. It’s one of the most abundant elements in the universe and can be found in the Earth’s crust and in the atmosphere, according to the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. But the coolest fact about neon might just be that it’s produced by stars. During the alpha process in large stars, oxygen and helium are fused together to create the noble gas. Thankfully for Vegas, it can be produced commercially by a process called fractional distillation, aka liquifying air.
