A team in France announced today a new explanation that might be the final piece in the solar system stability puzzle. If Konstantin Batygin liked to gamble, he would stake that the latest explanation for the Solar System’s stability—which a team in France announced today—will not be the final word
A comic strip published in Physics Magazine shows how our solar system avoids planet collisions. The comic strip illustrates a planetary mechanism that may explain why the Solar System—despite its chaotic nature—displays long-term stability. Researchers from the University of Georgia have just used AI to discover a new planet outside
Our Earth was visited by a rare space traveler that came from edge of Solar System. The fireball had mysteries that would likely revolutionize our knowledge of our Solar System’s formation.
The other planets may eventually collide with one another or be ejected out of the solar system if a star passing through our solar system changed Neptune’s orbit by just 0.1 percent. This essentially means that the Earth and the entire solar system can collapse if this happens to Neptune.
