And I will be telling you about the formation of our Solar System!

Hello, my name is Antares. I am the brightest star in the constellation of Scorpius which is in the shape of a Scorpion.

It is possible that a shock wave of a supernova, or dying star, made the star suddenly increases in brightness. Because of the shock wave the cloud of gas and dust collapsing in on itself.

Which Is more commonly known as a galaxy!

The stars and the small clouds started to circle in a counter-clockwise direction around the center of the nebula and a flat spinning disk of dust and gas was created.

Once upon a time, 4.6 billion years ago, in space, there was a cloud of gas and dust. This cloud was only a small part of a much bigger cloud with billions of stars in it called a nebula.

Inside the galaxy the smaller clouds were doing the same thing, spinning around their center and starting to create the Future Solar System, which is our solar system today!

But the little clouds started to collapse and fall in on itself. the particals called hydrogen started to gather at the little clouds center.

When the hydrogen (H) particles came together, helium was created which is also called a nuclear fusion.

Then, the material that was left behind by the sun clumped together into bigger pieces, which become planets, dwarf planets, and moons.
