The Universe is an infinite space surrounding the Earth, with a radius of at least 15 billion light
years, and is believed to be constantly expanding. A light year is the distance that a ray of light
covers in a year at a speed of300,000 km/sec.
There is an infinite number of groups of stars or galaxies in the Universe. The Milky Way
galaxy that our Solar System is a part of is just one of them, and in some Slavic languages it is
referred to as kumova slama.
The Sun and its system are 30 million light years away from the centre of this galaxy and they
rotate with it. It takes 226 million years for the Solar System to complete a circle around the
centre of the Milky Way, and this period of time is called a cosmic year.
The Solar System consists of eight planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn,
Uranus and Neptune, with an asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, 60 satellites, numerous
planetoids, meteors and cosmic dust. According to the decision made in 2006, the Pluto is not
considered to be a planet due to its constant distancing away from the Solar System.
There are two groups of hypotheses about the origin and creation of the Solar System: those of
the red-hot Earth and those of the cold Earth at the beginning. According to the former group
the Earth is gradually getting cooler and older, whereas according to the latter the heat at the core
is constantly being renewed.
The premise of the nebular hypotheses of the first group is that the Sun and the planets formed
out of nebula (celestial fog) in the process of self-formation. This hypothesis was supported by
7/29/2019 The Origin and Creation of the Earth and the Solar System_1
8/24
many scientists, one of them being the German philosopher Immanuel Kant and the French
astronomer Pierre Laplace. Kant presented his hypothesis in 1755, in his book The Universal
Natural History and Theory of the Sky which Laplace added to later. According to Kant-
Laplace hypothesis the Solar System was originally a red-hot fogginess that revolved on its axis
and thereby gained the shape of a disc. By emitting heat into the cold space around it, this
fogginess was gradually cooling, condensing and reducing in size. By decreasing in volume it
rotated gradually faster thus getting flatter. In time, the speed increased so much that it became
stronger than gravity, especially in the centre around the fogginess equator. This led to separation
of gaseous rings around the central mass. The heaviest elements concentrated in the centre and
eventually created the Sun while the different density of the matter in rings led to the creation of
gravitation cores that later became planets.
This theory that the Earth formed out of the red-hot mass and is getting cooler was abandoned in
the mid 20th
century. The now generally accepted hypothesis about the creation of the Earth by
condensation of the cold particles of cosmic dust was first presented by Carl von Weizsecker in
1943.
According to this proto-planetary hypothesis the Solar System formed out of the giant rotating
cloud of cold cosmic dust and gases (nebula). The matter of the nebula was very tenuous at the
beginning, its temperature being only a few degrees above the absolute zero (-273.16 degrees).
Its solid particles were mainly composed of metal, silica, and icy-crystallized gases, while only
hydrogen and helium, which made up 98% of the cloud matter, were in gaseous state. In the
middle of the cloud, where the matter was the thickest, a central globulathe proto-sun formed
due to the collision of the particles inside. This central globula compressed fast and its gravity
was increasing. The rest of the cloud gained the shape of a very flat disc where, due to the
turbulent movements, smaller globulas or vortexes of cosmic dust formed somewhat later to
become proto-planets.
Due to its huge mass and gravity, there was a strong contraction and a sudden increase in
temperature in the centre of the central globula. When the temperature reached several million
degrees Celsius, a thermonuclear reaction of turning hydrogen into helium started, thus giving
7/29/2019 The Origin and Creation of the Earth and the Solar System_1
9/24
birth to a new star - the sun, which started emitting light and heat. According to this hypothesis,
the sun and the planets originated from the same matter and formed at about the same time.
The increase in temperature was a consequence of huge friction at the compression of the matter,
although a substantial quantity of heat could have been the result of the radioactive decay of
elements. Due to this, the matter that formed our planet started melting, first the minerals
abundant in silica-dioxide. This molten mass or magma, being lighter, started moving towards
the surface whereas the other not as easy to melt elements with a greater specific weight sank
towards the centre of the Earth. The melting of the core was followed by the release of huge
amounts of gases, forming the atmosphere mainly composed of water vapour. The condensation
of this water vapour in the atmosphere and the first precipitations created the hydrosphere, thus
giving rise to the biosphere.
To sum up, the Earth is not getting cooler and older. Instead its inner heat is constantly being
renewed.
