it was first a cloud fragment of ice and cold air, in turned into a large spinning disk, then the fusion and heat got so hot the nebula and made the sun, the the rest that didn't formed into a bunch of balls, that are now eight planets.

and became a moon
It is commonly believed that, because of Jupiter's intense gravity, many of its moons are result of "catching" asteroids from space into its gravitational orbit.

What is a jovian planet?
It is believed planets form via accretion. However, due to the large size of Jovian planets, there would not be enough time for these to form via accretion. This presents the â??Jovian Problemâ?? which contends that since these type planets abound in planetary systems, there may be another way in which these planets may form.
