The Tidal Theory suggests that the Earth came from materials pulled out of the Sun. At first, the Sun existed by itself until another star passed quite close to it and caused great tides. Some of the gas in the Sun's outer layer were torn away and in time massed together into the bodies called planets, including the Earth. Sir James Jeans was the English mathematician and physicist who advanced this theory which was widely accepted at one time.

What is tidal theory?

The theory of the origin of the solar system involving the near collision of a massive body with the sun. The original version of a tidal theory, due to Buffon (1785), considered passage of a comet, but modern versions of this theory invoke a passing star. The gaseous debris torn from the sun by tidal forces is supposed to have condensed into the planets; however, this theory has been replaced by the nebular theory.
