-
As its cloud condensed , the rotational momentum threw out a ring of cloud which continued rotating around the central mass.
-
The central mass condensed further and formed the sun.
-
As the sun condensed , it become hotter and brighter by conversion of gravitational energy and heat.
-
The rings of cloud broke up into eddies of varying sizes , the material of these eddies condensed because of gravitation into the planets that kept on revolving around the sun in different elliptical orbits.
