HOW WAS EARTH FORMED?

Earth was formed around 4.54 billion years ago by accretion from the  solar nebula. Before the sun, Earth and the other planets of solar system were nothing but a cloud of dust. Gradually the particles attracted each other and it became huge spinning disks. As it spun the disks separated into rings and became white-hot. The centre became the sun and other large balls became planets. Mow they are known as Earth, Mars, Venus, Mercury and other outer planets.
