Solar Formation
Maybe someone could confirm or deny this for me.
​
I was under the impression that the inner planets did at one point contain large amounts of hydrogen and helium but due to their proximaty to the sun and relatively low gravity, the solar winds 'blew' these gases further out. This is a very simplistic explanation and I could have remembered the details incorrectly.
​
Is this accurate, or was it an example of Discovery Channel getting things wrong again?

Freedom, morality, and the human dignity of the individual consists precisely in
this; that he does good not because he is forced to do so, but because he freely
conceives it, wants it, and loves it.

Entirely possible. This is from a number of years ago and I barely remembered enough to give a summary so I could easily have forgetten or missed something like that.
​
I'll look it up, thanks.
