We need to create a planet to explain how the Earth was created?

Basically, yes. But if WE created a planet, that would still not tell us how it happened originally. That would only tell us how WE created a planet.

A historical event -- the creation of life from non-life -- has nothing in common with a scientific theory.

A theory is timeless and happening NOW.

Science is not suited to investigating something that happened ONLY in the past -- and not in the present.

That includes Intelligent Design. I can prove that God exists. I can talk to Him. But I can no more prove that the Earth and life is here by Intelligent Design than anyone can prove life came from evolution.

A relationship between electricity and magnetism can be proven as a theory. That is happening NOW. We can test it.

But what part of the Scientific Method applies to something that ONLY happened in the past, and has never been repeated and is incapable of being repeated?

Yes you can talk to him, and you can prove that you have done so through the use of a simple tape recorder.

Can you prove that he talks to you?
