Moon Formation - V3
... . Within weeks of the event, the debris formed a Saturn-like ring around the
Earth. Later collisions in this ring led to the formation of the Moon, probably within just a few thousand
years. Initially the Earth and Moon were much closer together than ...

Protoplanet Collision
Astronomers using the ALMA telescope reported in 2021 the first detection of carbon
monoxide (CO) gas in the terrestrial planet region surrounding a young star. Planet
formation models predict that in the last stage of
planetary assembly, terrestrial...
