The History of Our Solar System: How did the Sun and Planets form?

[@manofcultura]

I think the planet formation model is lacking one element that might help explain the rapid formation of gas giants. Electro-magnetism. It’s pretty clear most astronomers are scared of injecting EM into their neat gravitational models but EM fields are millions of times stronger than gravity and can account for rapid formation. It doesn’t help things like electric universe quackery exists but to discount 1/4 of the fundamental forces is to be blind to possibility. We already observe intergalactic magnetic fields, so why is a solar scale one never considered of the strength needed to assist planet formation? I think the sun likely had a very strong EM field during its t-tauri phase and guided material along field lines like iron filings lining up. Of course this is in 3d and in a spinning field so much more complex. Just something to think about.

Another amazing video! Everything is well explained. Can't wait to see how the Earth formed... Quite a special planet, isn't it? Also, in regard to the moon Europa, i heard that they are sending a probe to see if it actually has an underground ocean with potential life on it (Very simple though, just monocellular life). Theese guys don't need the sun because they live with chemiosinthethys (it's probably written wrong...)

Like always, great stuff! Happy to see you are making longer videos. Hope you are doing well. Take care.

babe wake up new Learning Curve vid just dropped

I'm up, I'm up!

LoL

Earth getting the special treatment as usual :D It's crazy to think that the solar system is such a dynamic creature, really gets the existential thoughts whirring.

Thank you for This video

1:35 this star I called coatlicue (coat-lick-you), by scientists.

Hello 👋!

[@erikrichardgregory]

It was my understanding the prevailing theory that the origin of the solar system might be due to a neutron star collision (which seeded the earth with an abundance of rare heavy elements, more than what an ordinary supernova might be able to produce). Does Learning Curve have some thoughts on this theory?

at 10:00 is it simply the gravity and proximity to the sun that dictates the differing effect that the planetesimal has on jupiter rather than saturn?

[@davidsellon4580]

Doesn't the collapse of the original gas cloud require at least 2 supernovae (or WR star explosions) to strike each other, thereby compressing the gas?

One error I noticed regarding Mars. A magnetic field doesn't help a planet hold onto it's atmosphere, in fact it's quite the opposite. A magnetic field prevents the solar wind from hitting sides of a planet but it then concentrated those particles at the poles scouring off more atmosphere than if it weren't there at all. You can see all the evidence you need by looking at Venus. Closer to the sun, same mass as Earth, no magnetic field whatsoever, and an atmosphere 700x thicker than ours! Mars lost it's atmosphere because it doesn't have the mass to hang on to one. If it did have a magnetic field that accelerated the process. As a side note a magnetic may be required for life to form. While it is detrimental to hanging onto an atmosphere it does deflect cosmic rays which are extremely harmful to DNA and thus life as we know it. Don't feel bad about the mistake, I've heard (and called out) people from NASA making the same error.

Hello mr learning curve Could you please be kind enough to make more quantum physics related stuff? Thank you🫡🫡
