Are planets formed from the same clouds of gas and dust as stars?

Yes. As a new star is forming it is surrounded by a disk of gas and dust called a protoplanetary disk. Planets, asteroids, and comets all form from this disk.

The first stars formed in clouds of?
Clouds of dust and gas.
What are stars formed from clouds of dust and gas called?
i dont knew?!
What does gas and dust formed in our solar system produce?
It is from interstellar gas and dust that we all came. The stars, planets, asteroids, and comets all came from clouds of gas and dust. As far as OUR gas and dust NOW, nothing much is produced. Its mostly all used up in the making of us.
Are larger solar systems made of gas and dust?
No. They are made mainly of stars and planets. The stars and planets came from gas and dust.
What did the planets in our solar system form from?
Planets can be formed from nebular gases and dusts around a protostar or from the cooling of small stars.
The first stars formed in clouds of?
Clouds of dust and gas.
Stars are formed from clouds of dust and gas called?
Stars. That is how stars are formed. They form from nebulae.
What were stars created by?
Stars are formed by hot clouds of gas and dust, named nebulas.
How were stars formed in the clouds?
The prevailing view is that stars form from the gravitational collapse of immense clouds of gas and dust in outer space.
Thick clouds of gas and dust that surround stars are?
Nebulae (plural of Nebula) large clouds of gas and dust, created by the demise of other stars. These nebulae act as galactic "nurseries" for the creation of new stars and planets.
How do scientists think that stars were formed?
Scientist think that stars are formed from thick clouds of dust and gases whirling around space.
What are stars formed from clouds of dust and gas called?

What is the role that gravity played in the formation of planets stars and solar systems and in determining their motions?
There is no doubt that planets, stars, and solar systems could not ever have formed without gravity. All of these astronomical objects condensed out of clouds of interstellar gas and dust, under the influence of gravity. It is also true that planets orbit stars only because of the gravitational attraction of those stars.

What caused planets to rotate?
Planets (and stars) were formed out of dust and gas. That had a rotation to it which does not go away (this is known as the Conservation of Angular Momentum).
What objects made the galaxy?
Black holes, stars, planets, proto-planets, large and small agglomerates (comets, meteors, interstellar dust), gas clouds.
What caused dust clouds to form planets over time?
The spinning disk of dust that existed after the formation of the Sun caused dust clouds to form planets over time. Gravity caused the material to come together to form planets.
