How would our solar system be different if the whole solar nebula had continued to cool until the
frost line reached inside Mercury's orbit before solar wind clearing? Assume that planets then
form by the same processes, and then the Sun turns on and all the objects have temperatures
similar to objects at the same location in our solar system. Write a separate short paragraph about
each of the following;
1) First, jovian planets. Would they exist? What would their main ingedients be?
2) Second, consider terrestrial planets. Would they still form, and would they be radically
different? What about a moon like Earth?
3) Would life as we know it be affected?.
