The Growth of Dust Grains in the Early Solar Nebula
Quick fact
In the solar nebula, dust grains grew from mere micrometers to kilometer-sized bodies within a few million years—like growing a grain of sand into a mountain in a geological blink of an eye.
Why this is interesting
You've seen pictures of dusty space, but how does it become planets? Imagine cosmic dust bunnies evolving into the building blocks of worlds.
