The image shown by wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_element https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_element seems more complete and better laid out, and is also by cmglee (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Cmglee https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Cmglee), based on data from Jennifer Johnson at Ohio State University (http://www.astronomy.ohio-state.edu/~jaj/nucleo/ http://www.astronomy.ohio-state.edu/~jaj/nucleo/): https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/31/Nucleosynthesis_periodic_table.svg https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/31/Nucleosy...

This table was also featured at Astronomy Picture Of the Day website (APOD for short) few days ago [1]. Judging by the tags in the tweet, author took it from there.

After the comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) is gone, pictures are again diverse and range from different fields of astronomy ;)

This article gives the more detailed explanation of the chart's data. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleosynthesis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleosynthesis BTW, image search of nucleosynthesis gives about 10 different versions of this infographic, with fairly significant variation.

The wikipedia entry is substantially different. The twitter version only labels 6 of 7 categories and what would appear to be multiple elements miscategorized.

  Also made in the similar ways as their surrounding elements, but generally don't stick around for long enough for anyone to really care.

  Or made naturally on terrestrial planets (Radon's colored brown).
