gravity and inertia
gravity and fission
fusion only
gravity and hydrogen fusion
2
What is step D (bottom right)?
A cloud of gas and dust start to orbit the star
Our present solar system is formed after billions of years
Stars are born in a nebula
The gas and dust around to star start to clump
3
What is step B (bottom left)?
The present solar system forms after billions of years

Stars are born in a nebula
A supernova explosion
4
What force formed planets and moons?

Space time
Gravitational force
5
Where was our sun born?
In a Solar Nebula
From empty space
We don't have a sun
From another star
6
What is step A (top left)?
The final product forms after billions of years
A supernova exploding
A cloud of gas and dust start to orbit the star
The gas and dust around to star start to clump
7
What was there before the super nova exploded to create our solar system?
Empty space

8
Why does our solar system orbit our star?
Gravity is pulling us-we are slowly spiraling in to the sun
Fusion occurs as things fall into the sun and create energy
Fusion pulls everything in orbit/free fall around our sun
Gravity pulls everything in orbit/free fall around our sun
