And hydrogen is the single most common element in the universe (three times the Helium quantity, by mass despite being the lightest, according to [1]). Oxygen is the third one, and is 24 times less common than helium. No wonder our gas giants (and sun) are so big.
Still according to [1],
> Hydrogen and helium are estimated to make up roughly 74% and 24% of all baryonic matter in the universe respectively.
