A new analysis of ceramic chips embedded in meteorites suggests the formation of our solar system was not as quiet and orderly as we once thought.
The new study builds evidence that the baby solar system likely witnessed wild temperature swings and changing conditions. That contradicts the decades-old theory that the solar system had gradually and steadily cooled following the formation of the sun.
