Astronotes Armagh Planetarium's Stellar Blog! ... Solar System . ... The theory is known as the Grand Tack as according to it, during the first 10 million years of the Solar systemтАЩs existence Jupiter migrated inwards toward the Sun before turning and coming back, sweeping away all debris that fell into its path. ... Another widely-accepted theory of the formation of the Solar System, the delightfully-named Nice model neatly ties in with the Grand Tack theory as they both support each other. ...

... The discovery of giant Jupiter-type planets in a close proximity to 51 Peg, Boo, and And has prompted the question of where the planets could be formed in the circumstellar disks of solar-type stars. ... Planet formation, at distance of ~0.05 AU from the star, requires that the temperature of the circumstellar protoplanetary disk is low enough for the condensation of rocky materials, and the surface density is sufficiently high. ...

The solar system probably formed about 4.5 billion years ago from a giant disk of gas, dust and ice in space. ... All forms of life on Earth require liquid water to survive, so the presence of liquid water is a good criterion for deciding whether other planets in the universe could be habitable. Earth is the only habitable planet in the solar system. Venus, closer to the Sun, is too hot to have liquid water. Planets and moons in the outer solar system are too cold for liquid water. ...

... Did you know that you're made of stardust? ... Almost everything is made up of materials that were formed in the centre of a star. Anything that wasn't made in a star, is made from the same material as stars gas planets, like Jupiter and Saturn, for example. Once you know that planets are made from the leftover material around forming stars, this makes sense! When a star is born, deep in a cloud of gas and cosmic dust, any leftover material forms a disc around it (like Saturn's rings). ...
