Argon - 40 results from the decay of naturally occurring radioactive potassium - 40, found in the rocks of all the terrestrial planets as
a leftover from their formation.
Evidence that the sun was once part of a brood comes from the rubble
leftover from the formation of the solar system.
Its thought these objects orbit between the Sun and Mercury, and are
leftover from the formation of the solar system.
It is a vast area containing
leftovers from the formation of the solar system that continue to orbit the sun.
As
leftovers from the formation of the solar system, meteorites can act as time capsules.

KBOs are so far away
from the sun, they're almost perfectly frozen samples of the material
leftover from the Solar System's
formation some 4.6 billion years ago.
Of the trillions of stars (most of which probably have some rocky planets orbiting it
from the
leftovers of its
formation) there are probably plenty of planets orbiting their stars at the same distance as ours with varying conditions, ours just happened to be right for humans to evolve and be here today.
The
leftover material
from star
formation flattens out as it spins and clumps together to make planets.
These
leftovers from the solar system's
formation, known as Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs), hold clues about its origin.
The findings, in the July 28 Nature, suggest that the origin of the 30 trillion to 45 trillion watts of heat produced by the earth's interior is about evenly divided between radioactive decay and
leftover heat
from the planet's molten
formation.
This means that the disc may not be
leftover debris
from the
formation of planets after all, and that the star may instead still be forming planets.
There are many possible sources for the components of Earth's primordial atmosphere,
from the so - called solar nebula, a cloud of dust and gas
leftover from the sun's
formation, to comets and other impactors that may have delivered significant amounts of chemicals to Earth during or after the planet's
formation.
Leftover gas
from the
formation of the sun may have persisted into the era of planetary precursors, Holland and his co-authors note, so the dual capture of solar gas in and around planets is plausible enough.
In the past, the decay of radioactive elements and the
leftover heat
from Titan's
formation might have melted nearly all the body's ice — so the ocean might have extended all the way down to the rocky core.
