   Stars formed from primordial hydrogen and helium shortly after ther   
   Big Bang, with subsequent generations of stars creating heavier   
   elements necessary for planet formation. The Earth, along with the   
   rest of our solar system, formed around 4.54 billion years ago from   
   the remnants of these older, exploding stars. Therefore, stars existed   
   long before the Earth, providing the raw materials for its creation.
