A theory is "a supposition or a system of ideas intended to explain something, especially one based on general principles independent of the thing to be explained." Merriam-Webster. In addition, scientific theories are based on hypotheses, tested by scientific experiments. To qualify as a scientific theory, it must be testable. However, to find out how our solar system is formed requires a lot of data that we don't have, but which grow every day in light of new equipment and data. Thus in modern days, new theories emerge every day to replace, correct or explain old ones as we have new scientific investigations,such as the expedition to Pluto, new telescopes, new discoveries such as gravitational waves, etc.
