There are many different theories from science to religion, on how Earth became a planet. Earth is believed to have formed about 4.54 billion years ago. Our entire solar system is the result of a solar nebula that collapsed from the formation of the sun.

Scientifically, a small object can not become a planet by itself, it should meet the certain criteria:

- it should be orbiting a solar object i.e. a star

- the neighbouring star should shed enough debris for surrounding gravity to pull on these

If so, millions upon billions of minor rocky bodies should collide with one another of a period of billions of years, overtime gravity will do the rest. Concluding with a large terrestrial body i.e. a planet
