The Origin of Comets and the Oort Cloud  

Original Version

 

   Comets, a cosmic wanderer, whose rocky core provides the gravitational attraction to hold the shell of ice and dirt that encompasses it is a mystery that mankind has proposed an answer to its creation and source. How were they formed in the genesis of the solar system? For what reason do comets contain the materials for the essence of life in the void of space without stimuli? 

   Presently most scientists conclude the Oort Cloud is a spherical shell  of comets residing outside of the of this solar system, in theory.

   Hypothesized by mankind, comets are displaced from the Oort cloud by the gravitational force emanating from a periodical passing star seen or unseen, which is moving to the outside of our solar system. Current theories propose as an effect of this passing, the gravitational tug exerts a force some objects contained within the sphere. Can these comets, which are moving about in the Oort cloud, be dislodged by this gravitational attractive force, thus ejecting them out of the cloud into new orbits towards the Sun? Let us scrutinize this theory examine the laws of motion and force and apply it to where these comets reside and the directional relationship, which results from the gravitational source of stellar origin.

   As we build upon our knowledge in the field of astrophysics, there are indications to consider that our solar system is or maybe part of a binary stellar system. The Sun, which has been known from the dawn of mankind, is visible. The companion, the Dark One, its existence only contemplated in some theories such as the orbital perturbations of Neptune and Uranus, is not detectable in the visible light spectrum, but reveals its presence when scanned in infrared and when gravitational planetary & deep space probe Pioneer 10 orbital anomalies are closely examined. The clue will be the probe's unexplained exponential increase in velocity and rapid loss of communications as it approaches and passes the mid point of the binary stellar orbital dance. An object once in motion maintains that motion unless acted upon by an outside force. The Dark One is similar in mass and diameter to our Sun has a difference is in its stellar core. The rocky mass of the Dark One that formed at the creation of  this stellar system during a localized galactic big bang, became the seed that the hydrogen gas clouds solidified around it due to its initial mass, thus initiating the gravitational particle flow towards its center.  As the hydrogen gas clouds collapsed around the new cosmic mass, the heavy elements within the rocky core was sufficiently large enough to prevent the proportional ratio to hydrogen element/dampener mix to reach a critical fusion level to support molecular glow from engaging. Thus motion and subatomic particle flow related to electron dropping from a level of excitation capable of producing visible light is shunted, but the mass maintains an excess heat signature. The quick explanation is that the mass with its random sporadic pockets of fusion and resultant heat are quickly absorbed by the total mass. Containment of all visible energy is achieved as the core is able to dissipate and absorb all created heat within in its body. Hence, the star called the Dark One did not light, but the mass of this object and its gravitational effects and a source of heat above the ambient temperature of outer space are still present.

    Looking away from Earth, the Dark One is located in the direction of the Orion Constellation at a distance of a little more than 18 times the defined by radius between our Sun and the planet Pluto (for some scientists alleged planet). Our solar system is rare in the Universe, because we have 9or 8 known planets according to which side of the fence you sit revolving around one of the binary stars, the Sun. The comets are orbiting to the inside of the location of the Dark One and to the outside of our Sun as the collision responsible for their creation only extends the orbit outside of the Sun, but does not initiated an orbit around the Dark one due to the repulsion force or capture. Almost all comets, whose orbit was initiated towards the inside of the Sun, were vaporized upon  absorption impact with the solar mass except for a few rogues which will be address at a later date. The gravitational force of the Sun overwhelms the speed and mass of the comet. One only has to look at an ellipse orbit of the comets over many thousands of years to realize that two foci are needed. Does not your basic geometry point out that for an elliptical orbit or a perturbation there is an additional or multiple focal points? This is basic geometry. What has not been accounted is a correlation between the orbits of long term comets and the orbital distance from the Sun as it increases.  If one were to plot all comets and related orbits, as the periodic time frame extends there would be a common  a point of convergence establishing a theoretical gravitational source. This would form a line as a designated to a focal point  about the cone encompassing all the orbits of comets used as reference points. 

 

 

   Would a star passing to the outside of the Oort cloud dislodge comets propelling them towards the inner solar system?  A passage on the far side of the theoretical Oort cloud sphere would result in a wider elliptical orbit of the affected comet, sending them in a new direction towards the gravitational source, the passing solar mass. A direction, which is away from the Sun. Contemplating, a passing star’s gravitational effects displacing comets on the far side of the Oort cloud sphere. Lets apply Newton’s gravitational laws, this would yield an insignificant force originating from the passing solar mass compared to the Sun’s gravitational force, thus maintaining the original orbit with a temporary perturbation dependent upon time and distance between the affected masses.

The Oort Cloud: A Maze of Contradictions

   Has the theory of the alleged Oort cloud when  presented to the scientific community for acceptance, examined? How can there be a spherical cometary Oort cloud when the inner solar system conforms to a disk?  Does not the universe show many examples in the form of galaxies where size is not a limiting factor on structural organization of cosmic masses around a common gravitational center. The gravitational force emanating from our Sun is responsible for holding the solar system of planets and the Oort cloud. The basis for current planetary  formation is centered around  a disk of mass projected within a plane due to rotation momentum countered by gravitational containment force of the Sun. Now there is an exception where smaller comets of low mass are scattered about the gravitational center in a sphere, how? Does the low mass, gravel particle related objects that revolve around Saturn in its rings exhibit this pattern or are they flatten within a plane with the larger masses, moons revolving in many eccentric planes outside of these rings? How do you account for these objects to attract water, a heavy molecule in relation to other light hydrogen compounds with a light gravitational attraction? Yet most of the inner planets located where most water molecules would float due stellar gravitational attraction has little to none except for Earth? Then there is Venus, 

     The origin of comets is unique for a solar system. As they were resultant of a cosmic collision in the ancient past of this system. A trailing moon caught in a gravitational web of a wandering celestial body impacted an inner planet now a remnant debris field of asteroids eons ago. This planetoid unknown to most of mankind except by rumor is the twelfth planet (a.k.a.  PX), but what is unusual is that it slings around binary gravitational sources, our visible Sun on one extreme and an unlit counter mass on the other, thus motion occurs in an odd orbit not referenced in any texts. This traveling planet has a diameter approximately of 29,000 miles and an orbital period of 3,656 years and pierces the ecliptic plane at various points throughout the eons in  relation to the decreasing mass of the Sun and its declining repulsive force dictating the distance of closest approach.  A cataclysmic cosmic event occurred, as the intruder with its captured moons trailing behind its gravitational sphere, entered the solar system like usual. On a close passage of a planet that was totally covered by water and harbored primordial life between Jupiter and Mars, broke the gravitational containment of a wafting tail. Where the combination of oscillation of movements of objects on the fringe of the tail became attracted and aligned to the planetary gravitational force in turn capturing one of the trailing  moons.  Due to the speed of the moon's approach, it resulted in a direct collision as the repulsion force invoked only within close proximity and could not overcome momentum. The size, speed, and mass of the moon were not the main determining factors in the breakup of the planet, but its fragile crust. Internal pressures of the hot core with its magna flows that were contained by a thin outer shell, due to then the planet’s young solar age. The crust had little time to form the many layers seen in present day geology on Earth. Now locked on target by gravity, the stray incoming moon shatters the planet. The force and momentum of the impact carries the shock waves through the center of the planet and ruptures the opposite side of the sphere. Thus propelling water and magma into space where it froze into its present day form, comets (rocky cores surrounded by water) and the asteroids. The straighter the angle of the fragmentary pieces are to the collision of the moon and the planet, the longer the orbital period of the comet. It is due to less interference of the Sun’s gravity in relation to its path.

   Most of all, how can  complex organic molecules form when activity at the molecular level nears a halt in temperatures at or near mankind's theoretical absolute zero, cooling rapidly from the extreme temperatures related to the Big Bang and its release from a singularity? To say the building blocks of complex life forms are in comets, is to say life existed shortly after the big bang  in a sterile environment, which would lead one to consider intelligent design.

   As for the reason comets contain the seeds of life? It was there from the onset of existence in the primordial oceans of the impact planet. Once the waters were dispersed into space and exposed to the cold void of the solar system, all elemental organic matter was frozen in time. So the comet was not a seed of a planet, but provides a glimpse into our past that shows there is more to the creation of life on our world. 

New Definition: Over time, the mass of stellar objects are converted to energy or loss to stellar expulsion in its many forms have a relational decrease to the central point of gravity as the repulsion force separating the objects to the force of gravitational attraction is disproportionate to the total relationship of  all mutual objects within the shared field.
