Questions

1. The current model for how planets form is known as the nebular hypothesis. As discussed earlier, a good scientific model needs to provide explanations for all of the observations made to date, and predict things that can be measured with future experiments.

2. We've recently become able to detect planets around other stars. What does the nebular hypothesis predict we'll find as we become able to better measure the orbits, mass, and composition of these planets?

3. Jupiter like planets that orbit even closer to their star than Mercury in our solar system, known as "hot Jupiters" have been discovered. Why was the existence of "hot Jupiters," initially thought to be a problem for the nebular hypothesis? How does the nebular hypothesis explain this?
