As the earth cooled, there was no atmosphere to trap the heat. The surface cooled off fast due to the cold temperature of space (like how the top of coffee cools off when exposed to the air). This created a layer of cooled rock that solidified into the crust.

The solidification of the magma ocean, upon which the process of the formation of the lithosphere is dependent, most likely began with the formation of a forsterite (or forsterite-rich peridotite) slab at a depth of about 100 km followed by the solidification of Earth's surface, cooled by heat radiation from the .
