FORMATION OF THE EARTH
• At the beginning there was a
cloud of hot gases and moving
dust.
• The temperature on earth was
extremely hot.
• Continuous rain brought down
earth’s temperature.
• So the outer portion of earth
hardened.
• Water appeared on earth
surface in liquid form.
• The hot gases cooled and
formed the atmosphere.
