Well, yeah, but given that when the universe first formed there were no structures like atoms, all atoms that exist today had to have formed somehow. Titanium can't form in star fusion because it's too heavy, so all titanium that exists today had to have formed in some other process, like a supernova. Some Titanium likely "lived" through multiple supernovae to get to where it is today, in asteroids or on the Moon, etc.
