First, the Sun coalesced through the gravitational collapse of a dense molecular cloud (DMC). A DMC is a region of space that contains predominantly hydrogen. Even though it's called a "dense" molecular cloud, it is sparser than the hardest vacuum we can produce on Earth. It's just more dense than most of space. Anyway, the gas collapsed under its own gravity until the gas was compressed enough to start fusing into helium, which is what causes the Sun to radiate heat and energy.

The remaining matter continued to swirl around the new star; it had some small component of angular momentum, and the matter sped up as it approached the Sun in order to maintain that momentum. Clumps of this matter stuck together, eventually forming the planets which were massive enough to sweep up most of the rest of the matter. The final remainder consisted of light, gaseous particles, which the Sun's own solar wind blew away.

This theory explains why almost every object in the solar system has angular momentum in the same direction, and explains the makeups of most of the planets and other solar system objects. It doesn't account for some properties of the solar system, such as Neptune's moon Triton which orbits in a retrograde direction, but this is accounted for by assuming that such objects were captured later rather than forming at the same time and location as the bodies they orbit. It also fails to account for the locations of certain planets, such as Neptune as well as gas giants in other stellar systems that are very close to their parent stars. This is explained by invoking the idea of planetary migration, which indicates that planets can move into completely different orbital positions from where they formed.

"when you consider that remember can in no way be created nor destroyed, the universe then is in a in no way ending cycle of remember changing states yet continuously present in one sort or yet another." in case you undergo in strategies that a sort of attainable states is "organic potential", then this fact is nice. "From those data i've got concluded that area/time and all the subject interior the universe could have continuously existed, precise?" interior the above experience. precise after the enormous bang there became into no remember, it became into all contained in one in each of those potential. E = mc^2. yet for the remainder of your question you're thinking of this remember being embedded right into a huge universe and exploding. the enormous Bang isn't an explosion precisely. it extremely is a sort of area itself. different than that, the belief of an countless cycle does not sound outrageous. there is likewise the open question of no remember if our universe is the entire tale (the multiverse concept).

No doubt, the bible boob gave the thumbs down.

Yes, by all means, read Genesis 1 and 2. It's short, for those of short attention span. It's simple, for the simple-minded. It's wrong, for the aggressively ignorant. It's authoritarian, for the compulsively dogmatic.

Now let's move on. David's answer was a very good one.

In the beginning, darkness was on the face of the deep... God made the Heavens and the Earth. That's how this whole story starts out. Read Genesis one and two a more detailed answer.

Weaknesses? Moses wrote it down, but I don't think he was there to witness it as a first party recorder.

DavidK describes a place of DARKNESS until the end of his first paragraph. Looks like Moses did a pretty good job of describing it, for his time. DavidK has the insights of Moses and many generations since then to stand on in creating his answer, though he wasn't there either.

Brant: You conduct sloppy science -- you presented your hypothesis that "the bible boob" gave the thumbs down but did no research on your speculative theory. I'm a level one noob. I can't even vote! If I would have called it the first book of the Torah, what would I be?
