When our solar system was very young, there were no planets—only a diffuse disk of gas and dust circled the sun. Some of those planetesimals, as astronomers call them, grew to be hundreds of kilometers across as they swept up more dust and gas within the swirling solar nebula. The Dawn spacecraft used solar-electric propulsion.
