Episode Synopsis "Planet Formation"

This is a crash course to planet formation! In this episode, you will learn how planets form from dust grains and gas, the different temperatures and compositions in the disk, and why the planets in our solar system exist where they do. This episode naturally follows the last one, the Physics of Star Formation. It is a bit longer of an episode, but is easy to follow. Enjoy! Note: This music is not mine, you can find it on YouTube and other platforms! Title: Cosmic Storm by A Himitsu
