The role of the boron nucleus in nucleosynthesis is discussed. Because of the fragile nature of boron nuclei, they are destroyed rather than created in cosmological settings such as the big band or stellar burning cycles. This instability also severely constrains the buildup of heavy elements in both processes. However, 8B is an important intermediary in stellar burning, as its beta-decoy neutrinos are primary objects of searches for solar neutrinos in experiments on earth. Interactions of galactic cosmic rays with the interstellar medium are believed to form Nature's 10B and 11B, as well as 6Li and 9Be. The success of this model leads to speculations concerning the expanding universe.
