The planet we call «Earth» belongs to the solar system because it was formed from the solar nebula that gave birth to the present stellar system we live now, about 4,568 million years ago.

And after the formation of the solar system, there was never an astronomical conjuncture that forced out our planet from the Sun's gravitational field.

Not even the «giant impact hypothesis» that postulate the violent formation of the binary system Earth/Moon, during the Early Hadean eon - and currently accepted by science - was strong enough to make the Earth a «rogue planet», gravitationally pulled out from our sun's influence.
