Formation and evolution of the Solar System - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Formation and evolution of the Solar System - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

 "The formation and evolution of the Solar System is estimated to have begun 4.568 billion years ago with the gravitational collapse of a small part of a giant molecular cloud.[1] Most of the collapsing mass collected in the centre, forming the Sun, while the rest flattened into a protoplanetary disk out of which the planets, moons, asteroids, and other small Solar System bodies formed."
