Initially, Earth was molten due to extreme volcanism and frequent collisions with other bodies. Eventually, the outer layer of the planet cooled to form a solid crust when water began accumulating in the atmosphere. The Moon formed soon afterwards, possibly as a result of the impact of a planetoid with the Earth.
Earth's atmosphere and oceans were formed by volcanic activity and outgassing. [43] Water vapor from these sources condensed into the oceans, augmented by water and ice from asteroids, protoplanets, and comets. [44] Sufficient water to fill the oceans may have been on Earth since it formed. [45]
