I don't know what docu I saw it in ( If somebody knows,let me know ) but what amazed me was that seeing color depends on your perspective. In the docu they showed a tribe that sees colors a different way. They could seperate two very similar variations of the color green easily where we can't, but couldn't seperate blue vs. green, it was the same for them.

Nope Sorry. Big Bang produced the hydrogen, helium and bit lithium.

And those lighter elements got "cooked" in the cores of the sun and were turned into heavier elements, then when these super heavy stars exploded they scattered the elements in their core into space. Then these gases slowly started to form planets in new solar systems aaaand so forth.

Edit: Also the Big Bang produced some Beryllium which is the heaviest element produced in that event.
