Debris
Regularity. When an object is broken, there is a regularity in the number and size of the fragments. The regularity is that, the larger the size of the fragments, the less of them, the smaller the size of the fragments, the more of them.
Hard planets of the Solar system.
Let's take into the table all the solid objects of the solar system. Objects, the size of more than 10 kilometers, was only 94 pieces. Order them in descending order of mass.
Table, 94 planets of the terrestrial group, the size of more than 10 kilometers:
Analysis.
It can be seen from the table that there are only two large objects: Earth and Venus.
They contain 86.8% of the total mass of the solid planets of the solar system.
13% of the mass - 11 objects: Mars, Mercury, Ganymede, Titan, Callisto, Io, Luna, Europe, Triton, Eris, Pluto.
0.19% of the mass - the remaining 81 largest, from the objects of the solar system.
Belts of asteroids, rings of giant planets, asteroids, meteorites, dust - less than 0.1%.
From what is observed, a logical conclusion:
"All the solid objects of the solar system were once a single planet. This planet was destroyed and scattered throughout the solar system. "
Its fragments, people call "the terrestrial planets."
On a large diagram of the planet from Earth to Pluto, 13 pieces are the largest fragments of the Ancient Planet.
On a small diagram of the planet from Haumea (next to Pluto) to the smallest, 81 pieces. Charon is the last of the visible sectors (white).
In the following image, showed the Ancient Planet and the 26 largest of its debris in the proportion of the size, in descending order of mass. All the planets, from the Earth to Enceladus, will fit in the volume of the Ancient Planet.
Blue is a planet with lots of water. From the Ancient Planet the ocean was inherited by the Earth, Venus, Ganymede, Europe, Iapetus, Ceres, Enceladus. The remaining planets also got water, but in small quantities.
The same picture depicting the planets.
Lost continental plate
An ancient planet was covered with a continental plate 35 kilometers thick with a density of 2.75 tons per cubic meter. Its weight is 8.63 * 10 ^ 22 kg.
Only a small part of this plate was given to the Earth, an area of 149,000,000 km2. with a mass of 1.43 * 10 ^ 22 kg.
The rest of the bark is lost.
Weight of the lost bark: 8.63 * 10 ^ 22 kg. - 1.43 * 10 ^ 22 kg. = 7.2 * 10 ^ 22 kg.
The total weight of all objects from the table, starting with Triton (No. 11) to No. 94 is 7.46 * 10 ^ 22 kg. It's amazing! The mass of the largest of the small objects of the solar system with the density of the earth's crust is of the same order as the mass of the lost part of the cortex of the ancient planet !!!

I will summarize all the known data in the table:
The image of a destroyed planet.
Ancient planet.
The diameter is 16,992 km.
The volume of 2 567 000 000 000 km3.
Weight 1,255E + 25 kg. (not less)
The density is 4.89 t / m3.
Ocean 6,09E + 22 kg. The average depth is 68 km.
The surface is 906 606 000 km2.
Atmosphere: Nitrogen - 7,4E + 19 kg. (19.22 times more than on Earth).
The ocean, whose average depth is 17 times larger than on Earth!
The ocean of the Ancient Planet got:
- Ganymede - 89.4%; Europe - 4.9%; Iapetu - 3%; Earth - 2.4%.
The atmosphere of nitrogen, 19 times more than on Earth!
Nitrous atmosphere got:
- Titan - 65.9%, Venus - 24.2%; The Earth - 9,9%.
The ancient planet was twice the size of the Earth (2.1) by mass. It was 42 times larger by mass than the ocean and 19 times larger by mass than the atmosphere from nitrogen.
The Ancient Planet had no land, no continents. There was a whole single lithospheric plate. The entire surface was covered with a thick layer of water 68 kilometers deep. And it was inhabited only by marine life forms.
Only after the catastrophe did the continents appear, free of water. And all the land forms of life - came from water already on Earth.
If the Earth received twice as much water, it would not have land, there would not be land life forms and, as a result, there would be no man.
If the Earth had got half the water, it would have suffered the fate of Venus.
Life on Earth is a fortuitous accident.
"An ancient planet" could be in the orbit of Jupiter for a long time. Numerous volcanic eruptions. The erupted mass covered the surface. Strong layers of sedimentary rocks were formed, hundreds of meters thick. The atmosphere has changed. As the cooling cooled, water appeared. Water covered the entire surface with a layer of many kilometers. There was no land left.
Life on the "Ancient Planet".
In the ocean appeared and developed cellular forms of life. Millions of years. Their evolution led to the emergence of complex cellular forms of life: unicellular and multicellular. The shells of the dead mollusks covered the entire surface of the bottom of a single ocean, a thick layer of limestone and shell rock. There are shells of large sizes. Hence, life has been flourishing for a very long time.
The surface of the continents of the Earth is the bottom of the ocean of the Ancient Planet. The upper sedimentary layer was formed by precipitation of a fine suspension from underwater volcanic eruptions. And in the last phase of the existence of the planet began to form a sedimentary layer from the shells of oceanic plankton - limestone.
The bottom of the sea turned out to be dry not because "the land rose", but because the sea descended into the space that formed between the continents after the destruction of the ancient planet.
Land life forms.
Have appeared on the Earth. Man by his existence is bound to the catastrophe that occurred with the Ancient Planet.
