Perhaps

If you look out into space, pictures on the internet taken from the Hubble telescope you can see a nebula a great big cloud of gas and dust the birthplace of new baby suns most of the gas is hydrogen the gas that makes the ozone layer hydrogen links together to build ozone, so hydrogen is attracted to hydrogen, yet I wonder is there a small attraction left over after the atom's link, is there a small slight attraction Is this slight attraction, the force that we call gravity atoms are attracted to atoms, oxygen links with hydrogen to form water perhaps, matter attracted to matter When suns that are born they start out composed of mainly Hydrogen gas and dust then having exploded into an atomic reaction because of the growing force of gravity they start changing overtime condensing slowly changing from hydrogen they turn into helium the next atom in the periodic table as time goes by they slowly work through the periodic table until if they are big enough they turn into a lead, then they explode going supernova, creating dust that goes on to make planets, meteorites and the earth our moon came from a collision with the earth our moon was once apart of the earth and broke away after the collision to become a satellite The core of the earth is hot, perhaps because gravity, matter attracted to matter the force of compounding atoms, creates an atomic reaction the outside shell is created because The coldness of space cools the atoms down creating a shell a crust around the out side of the earth the perfect nest for nurturing life Hydrogen appears to be the foundation of existence I'm not sure where hydrogen comes from perhaps the big bang theory is true but with that much gravity the matter would be pure energy so no boulders just an explosion of pure energy that cools down and starts forming atoms on becoming the smallest atom hydrogen would go on to form nebula clouds, suns and planets

I feel I am learning from a scientist here who is also an astronomer. Well penned Bernard.

No sorry, not a scientist, just a student of life, that likes to read books and learn, I'm not an expert, just expressing my own thoughts and opinions, perhaps giving the experts, insights, that they might not have thought about.
