How Did The Earth Form?

Note 1: Fractionation.
While some chemicals will remain gaseous (e.g.H and He) the rest will collect at the distance from the Sun with a temperature roughly equal to their temperature of deposition (the temperature a gas freezes into a solid). Jupiter, Saturn, and the other gas giants have cores of frozen volatiles ejected from the inner disk; each planet’s core has a unique chemical blend related to the distance and temperature at which it formed. Since the nebula was originally close to 100% gas, the same fractionation of chemicals also affected the inner disk.
Note 2: Mars' Survival.
Mars survives because of its orbit at the inner edge of this depopulated zone. The embryos that form closer to Jupiter are caught up in its orbital resonances--whole number ratios between two bodies orbiting the same star. These resonances deform the orbits of the embryos until they meet with some catastrophe. It is also possible that Mars emigrated to its position in the depopulated zone after forming nearer to the Sun and experiencing a close encounter with another embryo, possibly Earth.
Note 3: Grand Tack Theory.
This is called the Grand Tack theory, and it is an explanation for several otherwise unexplained conditions of the inner solar system. However there is significant disagreement over the early evolution of the gas giants. There are three primary complaints leveled against the Grand Tack Theory. 1) The migration of Jupiter would significantly accentuate the eccentricities of the orbits of the rocky planets in a fashion not seen. However if the nebular gas was still present, even partially, the friction would return their orbits back to low eccentricities. 2) The asteroid belt should have been depopulated after two passes by Jupiter. However it could have been reformed by material launched inward by continuing migration in the outer disk. 3) The Grand Tack theory requires a 2:3 resonant orbital ratio between Jupiter and Saturn to reverse their inward migration. This would require the planets by-passing the 1:2 resonant orbital ratio and there is significant skepticism of this occurring. We have included the Grand Tack theory because of its ability to explain the character of the inner disk and because it is representative of the fate befallen the inner disks of other systems.
Note 4: Formation of Mercury.
This is the most popular and most studied theory of Mercury’s formation. Despite this many questions remain about the capacity of a collision to strip away Mercury’s mantle. Other theories include Mercury losing its mantle via a series of hit-and-run collisions and then shifting orbits before reabsorbing the debris, its mantle eroding away via asteroid impacts, and its calm formation from an iron-rich innermost fraction of the solar nebula.
Note 5: Solidifying Earth.
The dynamics of the solidifying Earth are extremely complex and unconstrained. It is uncertain whether the Earth developed a solid veneer, how deep the magma oceans stretched or even if they were a global occurrence. Much of this uncertainty lies in the amount of energy available to sustain the magma oceans.
Note 6: Theories surrounding Theia.
There are three competing theories about Theia and its impact with Earth that attempt to explain discrepancies:In the first Theia is a Mars sized proto-planet that has been nurtured in Earth’s gravitational shadow. Thus it obtains a nearly identical chemical composition and survives long into the planetary melee. Ultimately Theia thuds into Earth at an angle, spinning the Earth like a top. Theia’s outer layers spray into the disk but its core subsides into the liquified Earth.Theia is massive in the second scenario, equal in size to the proto-Earth but distinct in composition. One or both the proto-planets are already spinning rapidly. They slump into each other, the prodigious energy from their collision allows thier matter to meld thoroughly. The rapidly spinning system swirls clouds of vaporized mantle into the lunar disk while the two protected cores churn and mingle. After the Moon has formed, the excess angular momentum is drained away by the Sun over eons. In the third scenario a small, blistering fast Theia plows through the Earth but is not captured. Theia fragments but its velocity carries much of the shrapnel out of the coagulating lunar disk, which is instead composed mostly of Earth material. Debates continue between these scenarios and their variations.

Minor correction: The Terra-Theia collision didn't re-melt the resulting mass, it _vaporized_ it. The kinetic energy converted into thermal energy by the collision was equivalent to the Sun's entire thermal output for a 24-hour period. Earth and Luna had to re-accrete from a cloud of rock vapor.
@mike954

If it were a head-on collision or Terra had a thick crust then it would have been vaporized, but it was a glancing blow and Terra was mostly liquid rock at the time. Not every planetary or planetesimal collision needs to be violent, explosive, or vaporizing. Some are slow and akin to taking 2 pieces of clay and squishing them together.

Thanks! More to come
Thank you for this project, I really love the narrative style. It reminds me of stories of older more ancient times when our world was seen and understood to be full of magic and mystery. I am excited to see more videos in the future
An amazing start for this new channel :) Good luck for your work in the future!
Stunning start! Really great visuals to go with the excellent writing and voice work. I can’t wait for the next one! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Time to make myself more knowledgeable in a new subject!
Thank you for this beautiful piece of art! I'm just speechless, wow!

Thanks for watching!
I cant tell you how much I appreciate these videos. They are exceptional. Narrator does a great job as well.
A very graphic and dramatic narration. I love the thought of the early planets duelling and fighting for survival. Subscription earned.
Omg it’s happening!!! 🙋♀️ 🍿
Excellent! Incorporates so much of the latest findings in formation of the Solar system! Definitely using it in my Earth Science class!
I just started from this video and plan to watch all the way through to the latest. This content is so well made, thank you for your hard work!
Wow. You guys really bring it! I so respect the care and craft you have invested. Extremely well done. Unique and interesting. Thank you very much.
I love this. Locked in gravitational combat... It is as if Homer, the Greek not the Simpson, is summarizing the history of our geology. The feelings evoked are like those I wish to induce when writing physics. What a beautiful representation of our current understanding of a creation event.

Beautiful, thanks
I really love both the voices of the past and history time. The narrator is perfect. I love the poetic style, like a scientific origin myth.
Having watched a few of these I've come here to start at the beginning. These are brilliant. Top job.
I really love how u present theses topic. And you got a great voice for documentaries. Looking forward to more to come. Thank you.
Really incredible work you’ve done here. It sends the mind reeling outward and into the expanse of time and space as if it was another asteroid plummeting through the cosmos. Quite a trip. 👌
Beautiful!
Best series I’ve seen. After just a minute of two I thought: ok, better get comfy, this is binge-watching material.
Great video! Glad I found this channel early, I look forward to your future videos!
This is absolutely amazing, and the poetic nature in which it is done makes all the better. I think everyone should watch this video to form a better understanding of how we got here, how truly unique and lucky we are.
Really great video, I cant wait next episode... its like Im watching bbc earth, ng or discovery production, bravo!
Beautiful. Thank you so much for creating this series 🙏
This is honest to gods, one of the most beautifully written, narrated, entertaining and informational video I have ever watched on youtube. This is amazing. Thank you.
This is so great! I'm going to use this for my 6th graders science lesson tomorrow. The writing here is amazing, and you brought new life to an old topic. Incredible. Thank you for the quality content.
I look forward to the next video
Looks like I'm in time to see your "early stuff"! I can't wait to watch this channel grow.
This was so beautiful, it felt like a sci-fi story, and in the same time it was all scientific facts, good on you, all the best mate!
Very poetic: Theia's gravestone...
Nicely done, your content is always engaging. I'm curious though about the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Some theorize that there actually used to be a planet that was destroyed somehow.

The combined mass of the asteroid belt would make a body 4% the mass of the Moon. If it ever was a real planet it would have been less than half the size of Pluto.

The Prof is right. Its also unlikely the asteroid belt is the ruins of a planet given the diversity of material that exists there. The consensus seems to be that the belt is merely a remnant population of miscellaneous debris from across the solar system that formed after any inward migration of the gas giants. It survived by avoiding orbits that resonate with those of the migrating gas giants, an entanglement that doomed the majority of planetesimals in that region of the disk. It is, in a sense, a negative photograph of the early solar system! But you are on the right track; most objects in the asteroid belt are fragments of much larger bodies... just not quite the size of planets.
Amazing job putting everything together. Thank you.
THIS is some damn good content! Beautifully put together! Thank you.
Loved it!!!!!
"The earth forms layers" Like an onion? Or a parfait?
I love this channel so much, keep up the excelent work!
Woooow, I been a fan for long time, haven't checked in in a bit, JUST found this 4 months late!! This is so awesome. Thanks guys
In gravitational combat the weak are doomed to never be planets, like Theia....or Pluto.
I enjoyed that, just one thing which is not important, the title graphic i would of liked to see the continents move into place after the last global ice age. I realise that is nit-picking though.
I love your channel, guys! Amazing work.
Although I consume a lot of science programming, including about this subject, I learned much detail from this short video about the formation of the earth. Especially outstanding is your inclusion of footnotes and references. Thank you, and please keep up the good quality and attention to detail displayed in this excellent presentation.
Is anyone else a little scared/freaked out by this? Watching this video, I felt an almost existential kind of fear. I mean, I knew all the facts already, but I’m freaked out every time I think about the universe, and the (amazingly done and very realistic) visuals really didn’t help. I just really don’t like the thought that the solid ground beneath my feet used to be a magma ocean. The... age and sheer size of everything they were talking about is a bit too much for this dumb young human brain. Well done - this is a really incredible series

Awesome!! Can’t wait for the next video!
i’ve just been replayed the first three and a half minutes; i didn’t think i would _ever_ see Theia as a scrappy champion, but the opening narration is _incredible_
Great video. Thanks! People like different things, as always. For the first 10 minutes I was waiting for the high school drama class reading to end, and the scientific documentary to begin. Oh well.. 😄 It's a bit exhausting to listen to for 18 minutes 😧

Depends on the person. I liked it a lot, personally - seems a bit different to other science channels and I'm not a great one for poetry or poetic discourse normally. As you say horses for courses or maybe vice-versa.

This is why science doesn't spread like religion. You attribute the poetry of the world, to high school drama.
RIP Theia
I'm impressed at how you managed to make the chaos of the early solar system seem so relaxing. Cascading rocks falling from the sky shouldn't be as relaxing this.
This series and the Entire History of the Universe are just marvelous! Thank you so much for creating such wonderful series!
