Instead, some of it formed a disk that ultimately would condense into the planets and other, smaller members of the solar system. Here are the objects in our inner solar system. The Sun NASA’s ...

Scientists believe that the solar system was formed by a protosolar nebula (PSN) of gas and some dust. The PSN then condensed to form the Sun, planets, asteroids, and comets. The problem is that the ...

The inner solar system spins much more slowly than the laws of modern physics predict, and a new study may help to explain why. A thin disk of gas and dust — known as an accretion disk ...

The rocky inner planets of our solar system, with relatively low masses and thin atmospheres, may turn out to be fairly anomalous. According to Laughlin, the formation of giant planets like Jupiter is ...
