What are pieces of rock made from the same matter that created planets?
Common minerals like feldspars and metals are pieces of rock that are made from the same matter that created planets
Why are big planets not close to the sun?
The giant planets of the solar system, are composed primarily of hydrogen and helium, the lightest elements. They formed beyond what is known as the frost line. Within the frost line the sun's radiation was intense enough to strip away most of the lighter elements, leaving behind smaller planets made mostly of rock and metal. Beyond the frost line the planets were able to hold on to this material and grew massive as a result.
Where did most of the material end up from the protoplanetary disk that formed our solar system?
Most of the material from the protoplanetary disk that formed our solar system ended up in the Sun and the eight planets, along with various moons, asteroids, and comets. The inner planets are made mostly of rock and metal, while the outer planets are composed mostly of gases and ice.
Why was Earth and other planets not solid when they first formed?
They were made of dust, not rock
What is a picture made with lots of different pieces of material called?
A collage
What are asteroid belts made of?
Pieces of rocks made of minerals similar to those that are formed the rocky planets and moons.
What is a rock made up of similar material that formed the planet?
There are lots of different types of rocks that form the planets.

How the outer planets formed?
God made the outer planets, the whole universe and everything in it. He made you and created everything in outer space.
Is outer planets made of heavier material than a inner planet?
No because the inner planets are made of rocky and hard substances and the outer planets are made of gassy lighter substances.
What is an objects that orbit planets?
It can be natural satellites (moons), man-made satellites or small pieces of matter such as ice (rings of the outer planets).
Why was Earth and other planets not solid when they first formed?
They were made of dust, not rock
Is Humus is made of tiny pieces of weathered parent material?
The answer is: false.
How do planets get moons?
Most moons are formed at the same time as their planets, and are made of similar materials. After the formation of the sun, the leftover protoplanetary material eventually clumped together and formed planets. Any material left over from the formation of the planets later formed the moons. The Earth's moon, however, is believed to have been formed by a collision with a NEO (Near Earth Object), such as an asteroid, that scientists call Theia. The collision sent billions of tons of material into space and reaccreted into a spherical shape. They speculate that it was the size of Mars and hit Earth about 4.5 billion years ago while the Earth was still relatively young.
What is the material are Saturn's rings made from?
They are made of billions of pieces of ice, rocks, and dust chunks.
