Земята може да бъде изхвърлена от Слънчевата система, изследва предупрежденията
Земята може да бъде изхвърлена от орбитата си и да се хвърли в друга планета или слънцето, предизвестява ново изследване. Passing stars could be the orchestrator of this cosmic instability which could jeopardise our planet's health, much before the Sun annihilates it in five billion years as a red giant.
Based on thousands of computer simulations, the study published in the journal, states that there is a chance that a passing field star -- a type of star that appears in the same region of the sky as another object being studied-- could cause more havoc than previously estimated.
A star with mass comparable to our Sun passing within 10,000 astronomical units could significantly disrupt the Oort Cloud, which marks the outer boundary of our solar system beyond Pluto.
" Passing stars are the most probable instability trigger during the next four billion years, " the study highlighted, adding that planets in the solar system, as well as Pluto, were significantly less st...
