As each condition is mentioned, four inserts show different parts of Earth: an ocean; buildings amongst trees; people; and animals. Scientists think this stuff has stayed pretty unchanged from the time the solar system first formed about four and a half billion years ago! Standing next to him is Moby. It was named after the Roman god of the sea maybe because it's so blue! But how does it make our calculators work? He is holding a star chart in one hand and a pair of binoculars in the other. An animation shows Pluto rotating in space. They formed the gas giants, like Jupiter. ","What is the Sun? Gravity drew this stuff together into clumps, eventually forming the sun and the surrounding planets. It likely had oceans and rivers, and its atmosphere contained more heat-trapping gases.
