Abstract
Present understanding of the formation of chondritic meteorites in the solar nebula is reviewed, focusing on the nebular history of chondritic material. The stages in the history of chondritic material are summarized. The processing of chondrules and refractory inclusions is considered, and the relatedness of chondrules and refractory inclusions is discussed.
