"The giant-impactor hypothesis proved how the Sun formed." Is this statement true or false and why?
A) It is false. The giant-impactor hypothesis explains the formation of the outer planets, also known as "the gas giants."
B) It is true. The giant-impactor hypothesis states that the star we call the Sun formed when several large planetesimals collided with so much force that the heat of collision is still being emitted from the Sun today.
C) It is false. The giant-impactor hypothesis states that Earth and the Moon were formed when a giant embryo collided with Earth.
D) It is true. The giant-impactor hypothesis states that the star we call the Sun formed when a giant ball of dust and other particles collided with sufficient force.
