What is the cloud of gas and dust from which our solar system formed?
Solar nebula.
What type of solar system is ours spiral?
I believe you are confusing a solar system with a galaxy. Our galaxy contains several hundred billions stars, i.e., solar systems.I believe you are confusing a solar system with a galaxy.

What is the cloud of gas and dust that formed our solar system called?
It is sometimes called the Solar nebula.
The planets were originally giant comets captured by the sun?
Our current theory of the formation of our solar system is that the planets formed more or less in their present orbits. We do not believe that the planets (with the exception of Pluto) were "captured" by the Sun's gravity.
What do you call the tiny part of our galaxy in our solar system?
"Our solar system." The "part of our galaxy" that's in our solar system is the solar system.
When was the solarsystem created?
Scientists believe that the solar system formed about 4.5 billion years ago.
When did scientist believe your solar system formed?
The solar system is believed to have formed about 5 billion years ago, and by the way, why do you call it YOUR solar system? Do you come from a different solar system? Because if not, then it's OUR solar system.
How do scientists think the solar system formed and why?
Scientists believe that the solar system formed from a vast cloud of gas and dust, called the solar nebula, around 4.6 billion years ago. Gravity caused the nebula to collapse and form a spinning disk, with the Sun forming at the center and the planets forming from the material in the disk. This model, known as the nebular hypothesis, is supported by observations of other planetary systems and the composition of the solar system.
Scientists believe that the solar system may have formed from condensation of a large?
Scientists believe that the solar system may have formed from the condensation of a large cloud of gas and dust called a solar nebula. As this nebula collapsed under its own gravity, it began to spin and form a flattened disk. The central region eventually became the Sun, while the outer regions coalesced to form the planets and other celestial bodies.
Which planet in the solar system formed first?
i believe mercury
How do you know the age of the solar system?
No one knows it. Scientists lie or exaggerate about knowing. Although the above is partially true, scientists do have theories about how the solar system was formed. If the entire solar system was formed at the same time then all objects in the solar system are the same age. Using radioactive dating of meteorites scientists calculate how long it has been since the meteorite solidified and go based on that date.
Which planet do scientists believe developed first in the outer solar system?
Jupiter
How do scientists think the sun and the solar system formed?
4.5-5 billion years old
What was the solar system when the moon formed?
When the Moon was formed, the Solar System WAS already a solar system.
Why do scientists believe the solar system was formed as a gas cloud?
Because there's no other plausible method for it to take place, and because similar processes are being observed even now.
How do scientists describe the formation of the solar system?
Scientists believe that the solar system formed from a spinning cloud of gas and dust known as the solar nebula about 4.6 billion years ago. As the nebula contracted under its own gravity, it started to heat up and flatten into a disk. The center of the disk eventually collapsed to form the Sun, while the remaining material in the disk coalesced to form the planets, moons, and other objects in the solar system.
How was the solar system formed according to astronomers?
Astronomers believe that the solar system formed from a giant rotating cloud of gas and dust called the solar nebula. As the cloud collapsed under its own gravity, it began to spin faster and eventually formed a flat, rotating disk. The Sun formed at the center, while the planets and other objects in the solar system accreted from the material in the disk.
