Now do u think Mars must be included ?(though it is a terrestrial planet and much smaller) as said by BrainForce in Ul. Cos.Quiz .
These planets are considered to be at close distances at that time ,now they are distanced...(lossened up)
But the jupiter and mars are still very near....can't jupiter have that effect with mars....and earth too ( as distances are very close making mass ineffective) |
colliding objects are said to be involved with a couple planets in clockwise orbit and our moons formation. it would seem to agree with these assumptions a planets tilt could have been likewise caused. the earths tilt is important to our existence, but surely life would have evolved. maybe even us and where we lived on the planet the only difference.
in the very beginning of solar formation some masses may not have been where they are now and no doubt there were many more then now. but as the sun took shape and gravity stabilized any remaining objects should have been in a motion (orbit speed) to maintain an orbit. those not probably became part of the sun or left the solar system.
with all the solar system mass or gravity effects, other than the sun being 00.2% or the suns mass being 99.80% any effect by planets would have to be minimal.
Common Gravitational Interaction right?
