Ten expanding earth miracles

Enjoy,


Ok, what if.......just for fun

It just occured to me that whenever we find a planet around
a distant star, it's always a huge gaseous protoplanet. Of course
only the larger planets would be spotted first, but still.

What if when the earth was first forming, before the sun ignited, the
earth protoplanet comprised not just dust and rocky particles, but
also large amounts of gases. Which have yet to be pushed out of
the inner solar system after the sun ignited. The early earth then
would first form with lots of volatile gases as well as the rocky
material. Or in short, the earth was /more massive/ and hence
/more compressed/ or smaller during the very early stages of
formation.

Once the sun ignited, and over time, the volatile gases would
dissipate and the mass would /decrease/ as the earth evolved.
Causing an initially compressed heavier earth to...decompress...
and expand. This would solve the missing mass problem and also
the problem of the expansion having to be recent, it would
have to happen very early on. And long ago the earth would
have settled down to an equilibrium and expansion would have
ceased long ago.

There are a few things about this that don't explain the current
expanding earth hypothesis. First, the rocky materials the Earth is made
of won't compress that much, and it would take a *lot* of gas to make it
compress that much. Second, as you said, expansion would have ceased
long ago
