Solar system origin and planetary formation are discussed with emphasis placed on accretion disk dynamics, disk instabilities, giant gaseous protoplanets, condensation, sedimentation, coagulation, planetesimal swarm evolution, giant planet formation, and implications for satellites. Disk formation and the dynamics of a protosatellite disk are considered as well as satellite accretion, impact disruption and ablation, and satellite capture. Possible explanations for each of the satellite systems are offered. It is concluded that satellite formation involves a variety of processes.
