      I believe the earth was created in the same way as the other planets- as the universe cooled rocks collected to make the planet which began to orbit the sun. I am not sure how life started on earth, I think it could have happened spontaneously from chemicals that could duplicate themselves here on earth that were early DNA like molecules, or it could have come from space

      After the Big Bang, when the dense gases stared collecting and condensing, and forming stars and things. Dust and particles got drawn together and eventually started to form planets. The density and gravitational pull of the different planets, stars, moons and sun etc helped define the orbits that the planets have…and a combination of the nature of the planet and its proximity to the sun and things led to chemical reactions on the planet which eventually resulted in life…from there life evolved.

      First with the big bang, and followed a few billion years later by stars, galaxies, solar systems, planets and eventually life. To be brief, it’s a pretty deep question!

      Hi @agaarwal

      I don’t believe the world was made in seven days, I don’t believe that it was just luck….and I’m not sure that we really need to know. Lets just be amazed at what nature can do and be.
