The earth was not formed directly by the big bang.
The big bang formed the primary molecules such as hydrogen & helium
These gasses formed stars which produced some heavier elements like oxygen & carbon but no heavier elements than iron. Iron can not fuse and combine into heavier elements through the nuclear fusion process which takes place in stars because the energy required to sustain such process is not produced in the star.
Elements heavier than iron were believed to be formed by supernova (massive stars which explode at the end of their life). The energy released causes molecule to combine and this created the much heavier elements.
Through accretion (particles sticking together), planets formed when dust sized particles of these elements accumulated to form larger proto type planets which finally combined to form the earth and other planets.
The process took many billions of years for the large first generation stars to form, live and die (explode in supernova), for second generation stars to form from the first and dust particles to combine to planets.

The big bang theory and origin of the Earth?
The big bang theory deals with the formation and evolution of the Universe, it has nothing to do with the origin of life on Earth.
What year did the earth expand in the big bang theory?
It is the Universe that expanded, not specifically the Earth. Earth was formed much later than the Big Bang. The Universe continues expanding, though.It is the Universe that expanded, not specifically the Earth. Earth was formed much later than the Big Bang.

Where do humans come form according to the big bang theory?
The 'big bang' theory is not concerned in the least with the origin of human beings on earth. It deals with events that took place more than 10 billion years earlier.
What banged in earths big bang?
The "big bang" predated the Earth by about 8 billion years. The biggest bang that the Earth had was with a sister planet about 4.7 billion years ago which resulted in the formation of the moon (and the rotation of the Earth - i.e. day and night).
How did the big bang theory form the sun?
Hmph. The Big Bang theory did not form the sun. The big bang formed the elements hydrogen, then hydrogen began to create helium. Then stars were formed out of these two elements and that is how our sun was created.
How did Earth originally form?
from the big bang
Did the world form after the big bang?
There is no such thing as the big bang, you idiots. God created the Earth!
Did the Big Bang cause the earth's crust?
The planet Earth and its crust did not form until about nine billion years after the Big Bang. In a sense, the Big Bang caused everything, but the connection of the Big Bang to the Earth's crust is not very direct.
What had caused the world to form cause of big bang?
The big bang was the source of the matter in the universe, some of which eventually formed the earth.
Does the big bang theory suggest the moment at which the earth formed?
No. The Big Bang theory is an explanation on the formation of the universe. Earth did not form until billions of years later.
Who made earth god or the big bang?
the big bang of couse
From what did earth probably form?
The earth poabaly formed by dust particles, rocks, and ice in space after the "Big Bang" .
What is the contribution of big bang theory to the Earth's history?
Without the big bang there wouldn't be an Earth to have a history.
What started the big bang?
There is no such thing as the big bang, you fools. God created the earth!
What are the 3 theory's of the earth big bang?
The big bang theory is a model of cosmology it does not have any relation with earth's creation .
How did the big bang change the size of the earth?
It didn't. The Big Bang pre-dates our Earth by about eight billion years.
How was the earth made after the big bang?
The Earth was made long after the Big Bang, since the Big Bang occurred around 13.7 billion years ago and Earth is about 4.5 billion years old. Basically after the Big Bang, energy was converted into matter and the Universe was filled with clouds of hydrogen and helium gas. These clouds would coalesce through gravity to form galaxies and stars. One of these stars, our Sun, would form in the Milky Way galaxy. There would be a disk of gas and dust orbiting our Sun, from which Earth would form. For more info see the related questions below
