- Planetary accretion in the inner Solar System: Unlike gas-giant planets, we lack examples of terrestrial planets orbiting other Sun-like stars to help us understand how they formed. We can draw hints from elsewhere though. Astronomical observations of young stars; the chemical and isotopic compositions of Earth, Mars and meteorites; and the structure of the Solar System all provide clues to how the inner rocky planets formed. These data have inspired and helped to refine a widely accepted model for terrestrial planet formation?the planetesimal hypothesis. In this model, the young Sun is surrounded by a disk of gas and fine dust grains. Grains stick together to form mountain-size bodies called planetesimals. Collisions and gravitational interactions between planetesimals combine to produce a few tens of Moon-to-Mars-s ize planetary embryos in roughly 0.1?1 million years. Finally, the embryos collide to form the planets in 10?100 million years.
