We overview three recently proposed sites for the formation of unstable nuclei in astrophysics. These include the development a new Urca-like process in the late stages of the evolution of massive stars; the development of unstable elements in the hot neutrino energized wind from the nascent neutron star in supernovae or gamma-ray burst models; and the formation and evolution of baryon inhomogeneities produced by cosmological phase transitions and expanded by neutrino induced heating during the big bang. In each of these environments the importance of unstable nuclei will be discussed and some useful measurements proposed.
