Planet-building is simple and been done. I refer you to the movie called A hitchikers guide to the Universe. It is explained in detail how this is done.
That’s an especially funny one today, GGG. I especially like the conclusions, which boil down to “science is hard, so let’s try something simpler (God Diddit)”.
I am most certainly a Christian. However, this Creationist stuff is beyond stupid. Please, stop embarrassing those of us who are actual scientists with this tripe.
LOL! I’ve suspected all along that the earth never existed. How could any object be created in conformance with the laws of nature/God and yet produce the likes of Liberals? This world is a figment of a superbeing’s nightmare. /sarc
I guess you think that Terra forming is the work of the devil???
problems growing plants, God?

My plants have been taking off since using this stuff!
Forget the above discussion,,, the thread title is great!
Where are those shrooms I’ve been saving...
IOW, according to evidence, Jupiter formed further out. It has more mass than all the other known solar planets and asteroids -- combined.Jupiter's Composition Throws Planet-formation Theories into DisarrayExamining four-year-old data, researchers have found significantly elevated levels of argon, krypton and xenon in Jupiter's atmosphere that may force a rethinking of theories about how the planet, and possibly the entire solar system, formed. Prevailing theories of planetary formation hold that the sun gathered itself together in the center of a pancake-shaped disk of gas and dust, then the planets begin to take shape by cleaning up the leftovers. In Jupiter's current orbit, 5 astronomical units from the sun, temperatures are too warm for the planetesimals to have trapped the noble gases. Only in the Kuiper belt -- a frigid region of the solar system more than 40 AU from the sun -- could planetesimals have trapped argon, krypton and xenon.

While lead researcher Tobias Owen does not put much stock in the idea that Jupiter might have migrated inward to its present position, other scientists on the team say the idea merits consideration. Owen expects the probes will find similarly high levels of noble gases in Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Hints of these gases have even been found in the thick atmosphere of Venus, another planet now begging more study.
“The survey observations support the theory that disk concentration is a necessary step in planet formation, but the specifics appear different. Astronomers originally expected that the large dust grains would settle first, followed by smaller grains, then the gas. However, the Hubble observations revealed it was “all or nothing,” according to Grady. That is, the team did not see some flared disks with large grains, other flared disks with smaller grains, and flared disks of gas. Either a disk had a flare with everything in it, or it had no flare at all. It may be that after the large grains settle, they no longer block light from the central star, which causes the smaller grains and the gas to vanish. “The small grains go solar sailing out of the system, pushed by pressure from the star's light, which also breaks down the gas molecules,” said Grady.

But getting a paper published is what counts.
