This course on the origin of the solar system aims to help learners understand the composition, age, and formation of our solar system. By exploring topics such as the solar nebular theory, protoplanetary disks, and planetary migration, students will gain insights into the processes that led to the creation of our planetary system. The course covers essential concepts like the most abundant elements, the frost line, and the uniqueness of our solar system. The teaching method involves a series of lectures that delve into the scientific theories and evidence related to the formation of the solar system. This course is designed for individuals interested in astronomy, planetary science, or the origins of celestial bodies.
