This passage provides a detailed explanation of the formation and characteristics of celestial bodies in the solar system. It starts by discussing the formation of our solar system, with particular emphasis on the role of the sun, and goes on to describe the various planets, their properties, and even mentions the Kuiper belt and the moon's origins. The passage also delves into the peculiarities of some planets like Venus, with its extreme temperatures and carbon dioxide-rich atmosphere.
1. The text discusses the formation of the solar system, beginning with a cosmic cloud that was drifting through the universe.
2. This cloud eventually began to rotate and accelerate due to an increase in temperature and pressure.
3. The core of this cloud began a process of nuclear fusion, releasing radiation and causing the cloud to heat up and start to freeze.
4. The text also mentions that the solar wind, a form of radiation, is responsible for causing the cloud to disperse.
5. The text then discusses the formation of planets, explaining that they started as small clusters of gas and dust which grew and absorbed gases from their orbital area.
6. The planets began to rotate and grow, competing for mass.
7. The text mentions that the planets are still not beautiful, with examples like Earth, which is completely made of lava and has a molten core.
8. The text also mentions that the closest planet to the sun, Mercury, is not so large and its magnetic field is not strong enough to protect itself from the solar winds.
9. The text discusses the formation of the moon, explaining that it was once rotating but slowed down due to tidal effects.
10. The text also mentions that there are theories about how the gaseous planets were formed, with one theory suggesting that they began to release gases from their orbit and formed gaseous planets.
11. The text discusses the formation of the Earth, explaining that it is basically made of lava but has started to cool down due to rainfall.
12. The text also mentions that the Earth's ice sessions have started to break out, which is very lucky for us.
13. The text discusses the formation of Venus, explaining that it's basically made of lava, the average temperature is almost 460 degrees Celsius, and the atmospheric pressure is 92 times that of the Earth.
14. The text also mentions that Venus is basically made up of a large ocean, the temperature is pleasant, and life appeared on Earth.
15. The text discusses the formation of Mars, explaining that it is very cold, the average temperature is almost 460 degrees Celsius, and it has a very thin atmosphere.
16. The text also mentions that the Earth and Mars are doing the same thing, after all the rain on Earth, the temperature ended up stabilizing and now the planet is basically made up of a large ocean.
17. The text discusses the formation of Jupiter and Saturn, explaining that they were stable due to something called resonance.
18. The text also mentions that Jupiter just let a meteor pass and this is important for the future.
19. The text discusses the formation of the Kuiper belt, explaining that it is another belt of asteroids that will not form planets because of the influence of Neptune.
20. The text also mentions that the Earth has a beautiful moon, it is basically made of lava, but the ice sessions have started to break out, which is very lucky for us.
