As the universe expanded and cooled, matter could take on new forms, including the first protons and neutrons, followed much later by neutral atoms.

But massive stars create carbon, oxygen, and all manner of heavier elements through fusion all the way up to iron. When these stars run out of fuel and explode as supernovae, the huge amounts of energy released often allow for the formation of even heavier elements like gold, uranium, and others. The heavy-element-enriched gas propelled outward by a supernova mixes with pre-existing gas and dust clouds, which may then collapse under gravity\u2019s influence to form second-generation stars</ins>. <ins class=\"diffchange diffchange-inline\">Because first-generation stars had created heavy elements, these were available for gravity to form rocky or terrestrial planets</ins>.</div></td></tr>\n<tr><td class=\"diff-marker\" data-marker=\"\u2212\"></td><td class=\"diff-deletedline diff-side-deleted\"><div><del class=\"diffchange diffchange-inline\">* [https://www</del>.<del class=\"diffchange diffchange-inline\">mediawiki</del>.<del class=\"diffchange diffchange-inline\">org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Localisation#Translation_resources Localise MediaWiki </del>for <del class=\"diffchange diffchange-inline\">your language]</del></div></td><td class=\"diff-marker\" data-marker=\"+\"></td><td class=\"diff-addedline diff-side-added\"><div>\u00a0</div></td></tr>\n<tr><td class=\"diff-marker\" data-marker=\"\u2212\"></td><td class=\"diff-deletedline diff-side-deleted\"><div><del class=\"diffchange diffchange-inline\">* [https://www</del>.<del class=\"diffchange diffchange-inline\">mediawiki</del>.<del class=\"diffchange diffchange-inline\">org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Combating_spam Learn how </del>to <del class=\"diffchange diffchange-inline\">combat spam </del>on your <del class=\"diffchange diffchange-inline\">wiki</del>]</div></td><td class=\"diff-marker\" data-marker=\"+\"></td><td class=\"diff-addedline diff-side-added\"><div><ins class=\"diffchange diffchange-inline\">=== The Beginning of Our Solar System and Earth ===</ins></div></td></tr>\n<tr><td colspan=\"2\" class=\"diff-side-deleted\"></td><td class=\"diff-marker\" data-marker=\"+\"></td><td class=\"diff-addedline diff-side-added\"><div><ins class=\"diffchange diffchange-inline\">The formation of our own Sun and Earth took place about 4.6 billion years ago.
