... The core was slowly rotating at first, but as it collapsed it spun faster, like a spinning ice-skater pulling in their arms. The rotation prevented the core's equator from collapsing as fast as the poles, so the core became a spinning disc. Gas and dust in the disc spiraled gradually in to the cent ...
