The solar nebulous which is seeded with heavy elements from supernovae explosion that had to be at the right time and location. These explosions had to be near enough to element enrich the solar nebula but sufficiently distant from scattering it.

"Science" uses every solution to rule out "smarts" or "universe making a choice". The theists could use this knowledge. But then again, "science" doesn't do a thing does it? The easiest thing to rule out is "nothing" doing it. I think.
Something started what? That means absolutely nothing to me. Stuff was here yesterday and the day before and on back as far as we know. Before there was stuff there was a big bang. Before that we just don't know but I personally can't imagine there isn't another mega scale of things from which singularities are common place. On some level of description, universes probably reside one packed cheek to jowl with its neighbors on all sides. From within any one universe you'll never be able to detect the others for a number of good reasons.
Want to ask what started the multiple universes popping in and out of existence? Why bother, we are in no position to answer the question. Likewise with the question of origins. It is beyond our ken. From the fact that origins are beyond our comprehension, no assumptions follow.
Additional elements came in the moon’s creation impact which delivered fuel to drive tectonics and volcanism which has created the land masses, and earth’s inner core to make the magnetic field possible. “The disk has almost no iron as Theia's iron core merges with Earth's core.” - animation - http://www.fas.harvard.edu/~planets/sstewart/Moon.html. The collision happens to be just at the right angle, speed and location to form the full earth and moon. Too many ‘coincidences’ to be happenstance.
much less frequent miracles are transcendent where God acts independent of outside matter, energy, space and time; i. e, Christ walking on water, and the creation of the universe.
Atheist Credo: A universe by chance that also just happened to admit the observer by chance.
