Very good, as I'm with you on that interpretation, because then we also have to consider cosmic interactions and captures as being within the norm of what could happen. > > What makes YOU think that I think our solar system is impervious to > external forces?

Considering the original all-inclusive mass of the Sirius star system that may have represented three significant stars, each way larger and more vibrant than our sun, whereas it's entirely possible that our passive little solar system was nearby enough and perturbed or otherwise influenced by that terrific gravitational force (not to mention by that substantial molecular cloud that preceded), which lasted for perhaps a couple hundred million years before Sirius(B) combined with or absorbed Sirius(C) and eventually went through its red supergiant phase and helium flashover that managed to do a real number on us as of roughly 65 million BP. Possibly it was merely the remains of Sirius(C) being terminated and combined into Sirius(B), whereas either way (with or w/o C) it was a very big and nearby event. > > Perfectly uniform and orderly?

For one thing, there's no two planets or moons alike, and some items are seriously skewed off track and otherwise just plain weird. It's as though our solar system is relatively new to the universe (perhaps our galaxy is made from at least two galaxies), and it seems to have obtained parts of other spent or rogue items that are newer and older than Earth. The planet Venus is certainly not acting nearly as old as Earth, and Mars seems more than a billion years older than us, not to mention that our extremely unusual moon/Selene doesn't seem to fit either. ~ BG |
