Whatever can be seen and can occupy space we call matter. But matter is just organized energy and matter can convert into energy & back again to matter. Although we have only theories to explain these things the evidence for this fact is convincing.
The law of CONSERVATION OF MATTER explains:
" Matter & energy cannot be created or destroyed, but each may be converted into the other."
That is another way of saying that things that r seen can be made of things that r not seen. MATTER IS SEEN--ENERGY IS NOT.
Consider the Solar system, Everything in space consist of basic substances called elements and although more than a hundred elements exist, only 8 of them make up most of the universe.
the most common is HYDROGEN. For every million hydrogen atoms we find d ff number of atoms fr 7 other most common elements: 85,000 HELIUM, 661 OXYGEN, 331 CARBON, 91 NITROGEN, 83 NEON 33 SILICON, 23 MAGNESUIM.
But if you could see into the VERY ESSENCE of these elements-- into the atomic structure of the things that can be seen--- you would find only ENERGY.
IT STRETCHES THE IMAGINATION TO UNDERSTAND HOW EVERYTHING THAT WE SEE AND FEEL (chairs, food) IS NOTHING MORE THAN JUST "ORGANIZED BITS OF ENERGY" THAT PRESENT THEMSELVES AS MATTER FOR OUR USE. In fact our physical bodies consist of the same matter w/c is ORGANIZED ENERGY."
PONDER ON THIS
it is by faith that Christians believe that God, as the creator, is the organizer of energy into things that we see around us.
If you read the holy Bible on the book of Hebrews it says that "Through faith we understnd that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that which are seen were not made of things which do appear".

The proton and the electron micromasses were the parents of all material formation of the atomic mass structures of the universe .
The bulk of planetary masses in the Solar system consist mostly of Hydrogen.The earth is the exception.The reason is that the Earth is the only Planet which contain all the complex mass structure known to mankind as outlined in the periodic table of element. Elements being the the basic items in the receipes of all Compounds existing in the Earth.
The Sun being the source of radiative power for all the planets in the solar system contains the Same material as the Stars. Hence the Sun is a mini Star.

Apart from the hydrogen in the sun and other parts of the system, other elements were in the nebula or cloud from which it's believed the solar system grew.
These other elements were formed in the first and second generation of stars in the galaxy. Stars of various masses fused hydrogen into helium, and later in a star's life the fusion begins to form even heavier elements, like carbon and iron. As the stars die or explode, these elements are flung out into space. It's believed that some of the materials (there's a hell of a lot of it, when you think about it) may be caught gravitationally in another location to form a star and/or disc of debris, which may form a planetary system.
That's a garbled explanation of the general idea. Sorry, it's late here.

NASA have identified the location from which an unusually well-preserved meteorite fell -- the mid-to-far end of the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Their results confirm that the Tagish Lake meteorite is made of probably the oldest materials in the solar system.

The rocky material that was ejected by a super nova crashed into the surrounding hydrogen field and initiated the formation of the solar system.
the solar system is made up of a small amount of rocky material and a large amount of hydrogen.

The raw materials for OUR solar system are chiefly hydrogen, and also all of the other elements, that had been created by the nova explosions of older stars.

The raw material for the entire universe is Hydrogen. Helium and little bits of other elements...

the elementary uncooked supplies are; a million. 9 numbers of silicon wafers 2. optically flat glass plate 3. acceptable open metallic field. 4. insulated copper wiring, stable high quality thinner the greater effective The performance of the image voltaic pannel ranges from 20 to 30 % in accordance with high quality of the uncooked supplies and direct unintrrupted sunlight easy. usually the capability is generated and saved for the period of day time and utilized for the period of nighttime time.

So far as we know, quarks. Just like the rest of the Universe.
