The planet Saturn, along with the other planets in our solar system, is thought to have formed from a giant protoplanetary disc, within a larger molecular nebula, about 4.6 billion years ago, around the time the Sun and likely several other stars were born. Once the Sun ignited and took its current form, the effect of the solar wind would have cleared out the remaining gas and dust and halted the planetary formation process. Over the next few tens of millions of years there may have been more interactions and collisions until the current planets achieved stable orbits.
