What begins the process of solar system formation?
Gas and dust in a nebula is disturbed by an outside force
What gas is in space dust?
It is mostly hydrogen and helium.
What do ice core layers contain?
The layers in an ice core sample shows the different levels of matter (gasses, dust, etc) that were present in the earth's atmosphere at any stage in the past hundred thousand years. Each layer will be different according to how much gas or dust was in the atmosphere when the ice froze (trapping the gas and dust inside). These gas levels can be used for further research into issues like climate change.
How much time earth would've taken to come in its novel form after being detached from the sun?
The Earth did not detach from the Sun. The normal process of planet formation involves condensation of maerials from a cloud of gas and dust and that occurs at the sane time the Sun is forming.
What is a comet's radiant?
A small frozen mass of dust and gas revolving around the sun. It lights up.
A contracting cloud of gas and dust with enough mass to form a star?
a protostar
A star may form from this cloud of gas and dust in space?
It is called nebula
What is a contracting cloud of gas and dust with enough mass to form a star called?
A nebula
What is a contracting cloud of gas and dust with enough mass to form a star?
it's a protostar
Can condense and become concentrated enough to form a star and possibly planets?
A gas cloud. It must contain dust to form planets. (And lots of hydrogen to form a star.)
Clouds of gas and dust in which stars from are called what?
Clouds of gas and dust from which stars form are called interstellar matter.
What is the characteristics of the star Vega?
the star vega is made of gas and dust, 70% of gas and 10% of i don't know and 20% of dust
Will there ever be more planets?
In the words of my physics teacher 'Not in your lifetime!' Planets form from a disk of dust and gas when the star is just a proto-star. Planets cannot form after the star has been formed.
What is a large cloud of dust and gas that becomes a star star?
That would be a nebula, which is an interstellar cloud of hydrogen gas, dust, and plasma. It is the first stage of a star's cycle.
What happens to dust and gas after a supernova?
It spreads out and will, over time, condense and probably form another star or planetary system.
What do nebulas have to do with stars?
Stars form in nebulas. They're like star nurseries. The gas and dust in nebulas helps to form stars in their early stages.
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.
