When did planet earth become part of the solar system?
Earth has been a part of the solar system for its entire existence. It formed in roughly its current orbit about 4.58 billion years ago.
Where is liquid water present in our solar system?
Earth, but there could have been water in Mars years ago.
When were meteor impacts most frequent?
Probably when the Earth and the solar system were very young, and the solar system was still full of stray junk. In the 4 billion years since, the majority of the stuff in the inner solar system has already crashed into the Sun, Jupiter, or the Earth, or the Moon, or been thrown out of the solar system.
How long has earth been in the solar system?
The earth - and the other seven planets, comets, asteroids and minor planets - are all "charter members". They've been in the solar system since it evolved out of the accretion disc around the proto-sun about 4.5 to 5 billion years ago. Creationists, on the other hand, believe that the solar system and universe have been in existence for around 6,000 - 10,000 years.
Were these elements present in the infant solar system?
By the time our solar system was forming, all the naturally-occurring elements were present. After all, our Earth formed as part of the solar system, and all the elements we find here have been around for 4.5 billion years.
What is the approximate number of years that a meteor will travel to earth?
Meteorites have generally been around since the formation of the Solar System, over 4 billion years ago, until they happen to collide with Earth.
Why meteorites provide windows to the earth's past?
Meteorites are "space rocks" which have fallen to earth. Because these bodies have been in space for billions of years, likely since the formation of our solar system, they have not been subject to any type of weathering, erosion, or other degradation that happens here on earth. So, they're "pristine" examples of what things were like in our solar system 4+ billion years ago.
How long has sodium been around?
On earth- since the formation of our solar system.
Is there life in our solar system?
Yes, the planet Earth is part of the solar system, so all the life on Earth is in the solar system. Yes, our Earth is part of the Solar System. As to life on other planets - both within our Solar System and in other solar systems (planets around other stars), nothing has been proven yet, one way or the other. Specifically, no life has been found on other planets. It would seem probable, though, that what happened on Earth can happen again - perhaps on nearly any planet, perhaps only occasionally.
How many years has it been since the solar system was born?
About 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,00 years ago.
What age is your solar system?
The approximate age of the solar system based on the oldest rocks that have been analyzed is 4.56 billion years.
What evidence has been used to show that the Earth and all the planets of the solar system were formed simultaneously?
when told that let a solar system be formed it was formed
