Step 1: Iron, Hydrogen, and Helium-It is my theory that Iron, Hydrogen, and Helium helps create planets because Iron is needed for magnetic fields, Hydrogen is needed for stars and water, and helium creates stars.

Step 8: Ice & Water-It is my theory that Ice & Water helps a planet form by: you need water to sustain life for a long period of time.

-(Leave a space here for something else you will add later. )

* The information on this page was researched by: M.A. Clay G.

F1:Ice has the same mineral compound as water; is a mineral

F2:Ice is the #1 preserver of any organism; fossils

Step 9: Layers of Planets-It is my theory that Layers of Planets helps a planet form by: if you have a unstable mantle or inner core, you would not be able to sustain life so you have to have Layers of Planets.

-(Leave a space here for something else you will add later. )

* The information on this page was researched by: M.A. Finn R.

F1: Inner core keeps everything stable

F2: Unstable mantles make the crust too hot or too cold

Step 10: Surface of Planets-It is my theory that Surface of Planets helps a planet form by: having a good, life sustaining Surface for your planet is really important.

-(Leave a space here for something else you will add later. )

* The information on this page was researched by: M.A. Paige H.

F1: Surface that life needs-iron, oxygen, silicone, magnesium, sulfur, nickel, etc.

F2: Life needs energy-light or chemical energy

Step 11: Atmospheres-It is my theory that Atmospheres helps a planet form by: protecting our planet from dangerous outer space and the sun.

-(Leave a space here for something else you will add later. )

* The information on this page was researched by: M.A. Greyson B.

F1: Our atmosphere is 20% oxygen about 75% nitrogen and 1 or 2% other gasses.

F2: If you want a planet to sustain life it would have to around 92.96 million miles from their sun.

Step 12: Magnetic Fields-It is my theory that Magnetic Fields helps a planet form by: protecting planets surface from Sun and other places.

-(Leave a space here for something else you will add later. )

* The information on this page was researched by: M.A. Zayn Y.

F1: A planets magnetic field forms a shield protecting the planets surface from energetic, charged particles coming from the Sun and other places

F2: Created by Iron

Step 13: Mass & Density-It is my theory that Mass & Density helps a planet form by: you have to have mass to create planet with weight, and density helps create stable cores.

-(Leave a space here for something else you will add later. )

* The information on this page was researched by: M.A. Jakob H.

F1: Measure of the amount of matter in an object is mass

F2: Solids, liquids affect density(mass/volume)

Step 14: Electromagnetic Radiation -It is my theory that Electromagnetic Radiation helps a planet form by: Electromagnetic energy is the energy that gives us life from stars, so we need that.

-(Leave a space here for something else you will add later. )

* The information on this page was researched by: M.A. Caden J.

F1: Electromagnetic energy is energy released by stars

F2: All of the energy travels in waves

Step 15: Asteroids and Meteors-It is my theory that Asteroids & Meteors helps a planet form by: When an asteroid or meteor hits your planet, it can possibly release chemicals that may help your planet evolve as in the case of the dinosaurs.

-(Leave a space here for something else you will add later. )

* The information on this page was researched by: M.A. Abby S.

F1: Meteors-Anything larger than a mile could have worldwide effects. The largest known potentially hazardous asteroid is Toutatis.

F2: Asteroids are the small rocky objects to the Solar System-Largest Ceres

Step 16: Comets-It is my theory that Comets helps a planet form by: If they truly are remains from rocks that formed the Solar System, they would be supremely important, and also they could possibly be planets if they have their own atmospheres.

F2: Ash clouds create volcanic lightning

Step 18: Moons & Any Orbiting Debris-It is my theory that Moon(s) & Any Orbiting Debris helps a planet form by: Moons have their own gravitational pull, so maybe our planet could benefit from learning about our moons and knowing how the moons core reacts. (Knowledge is Power)

-(Leave a space here for something else you will add later. )

F1: It could find active galaxies

F2: Its mission is a planet hunt; found a planet same size as Earth

Leading scientists theory of planet formation:The information below is the only time I used the internet for this project, other than when I researched my own A.B.C. (Astronomically Baffling Concept.) The information is copied directly from (Space.com). Their theory of how a planets forms is: Earth'srocky coreformed first, with heavy elements colliding and binding together. Dense material sank to the center, while the lighter pieces created the crust. The planet's magnetic field probably formed around this time. Gravity captured some of the lighter elements that make up the planet's early atmosphere.

Theories compared and conclusion:1. My theory is similar to (Space.com) theory in the following ways: I also had heavy elements binding together to form the earths core.

2. My theory is different to (Space.com) theory in the following ways: Their theory started with a nebula, while my theory started with Iron, Hydrogen, and Helium and those elements created a nebula.

3. In conclusion, the steps in this booklet are my overall theory of how a planets forms!
