... notes on planetary disk formation

The early environment around a new star, the protoplanetary disk, contains dust and gas left from the collapse of the interstellar cloud that led to the star formation. The star and the disk of debris rotate on a common center of gravity, and this disk of debris could lead to the formation of planets.
