  • Leftover debris formed asteroids, comets, and outer planets, like Pluto.

  • Gravity caused the cloud of gas and dust to spin.

  • In the outer regions of the cloud, icy matter and gas formed the giant planets.

  • The cloud of gas and dust grew hot and created the Sun.

  • Near the center of the cloud, clumps formed rocky planets.

  • An explosion of a supernova led to a gravitational collapse of a dense cloud of gas and dust.

  • The spinning cloud flattened like a disk and spread.
