Planetary accretion
Link text
The solid materials collided with each other and accreted to form gradually larger bodies, until the Solar System's four terrestrial planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) were formed. -
4500 BCE
Formation of Moon
This happens before the planetary cooldown, a few thousand years after the accretion. The formation of the moon happens because the planet Theia collided with Earth, and they create a new mass and spinning off became the moon. -
Period: 4500 BCE to 3800 BCE
Planetary Cooling
After Earth was formed into a planet, the temperature was really high that no organism could live in it. So after billions of years of the planetary cooling, the water started to appear on the planet. -
Period: 4000 BCE to 3800 BCE
End of Heavy Bombardment
During the Heavy Bombardment, there are millions of masses hitting the proto-Earth. Those masses make Earth grow bigger and bigger, the bombardment stopped in a few hundred million years after. -
1500 BCE
Core Formation
The core formation happened after the planetary cooldown, all the heat went to the center of the planet.
