Solar system
From Wikinerds
In 1975-1977, after the discovery that He and Ne inside meteorites are always accompanied by isotopically anomalous Xe, Kr, and Ar, while no He nor Ne is inside meteorite phases that incorporate isotopically normal Xe, Kr, and Ar (Manuel and Sabu 1975, 1977; Frick 1977; all cited in Manuel and Hwaung 1983[1]), two academics claimed that the solar system was formed from the heterogeneous debris of a single supernova (Manuel and Sabu 1975, 1977; cited in Manuel and Hwaung 1983:p9[1]), with the Sun accumulated in the core of the supernova, the iron meteorites and the cores of terrestrial planets formed from elements synthesised in the hot stellar interior, and the outer planets and carbonaceous phase of chondritic meteorites being formed from the only region that could contain low-Z elements, ie the cooler outer zone.
