AnswerMany Christians accept the scientific evidence that the solar system was formed from material thrown out by an exploding supernova star, and attracted into orbit around the sun. They do not require answers about the natural world to come from their religious scriptures.

Others look for a literal answer from the Book of Genesis. In Genesis 1:15-18, the sun, moon, planets and stars were placed as light sources in the firmament which separated the waters above the earth from those below. This creates a problem for those who look to The Bible for a literal description of the creation of the solar system, and perhaps they find it easier not to think about the real structure and size of the solar system.
