The age of the universe is estimated to be about 14 to 15 Billion years and age of the Sun and the solar system is about 4.5 billion.
So the formation process must have started sometime in the latter part of the prior 10 billion years. Regarding my original question about the epicenter of the supernova that created the matter (that would eventually become the solar system), that would be somewhere in the expansion during the prior 10 billion years and probably not that easily detected today.
