What is or what are the origins of the solar system? Where does it come from?Does it proven or remained as theories?

The Origins of the Solar System • Any acceptable scientific thought of the original solar system has to be consistent with and supported by information about it(Ex. large and small scale features composition). • There will be a need to revise currently accepted ideas should data no longer support them.
Rival Theories • Many theories have been proposed since about four centuries ago.
Rival Theories • Many theories have been proposed since about four centuries ago. • Each has weaknesses in explaining all characteristics of the solar system.A few are discussed below.
Nebular Hypothesis • 1700s • Emanuel Swedenberg • Immanuel Kant • Pierre-Simon Laplace
Nebular Hypothesis • 1700s • Emanuel Swedenberg • Immanuel Kant • Pierre-Simon Laplace • independently thought of a rotating gaseous cloud that cools and contracts in the middle to form the sun and rest into a disc that become the planets.
