Extra Solar Planets
The discovery of extra solar planets revolving around distant stars has been a great achievement for mankind and his quest to unlock the secrets of the universe. Their appearance has opened up the possibility of life existing outside of our own solar system among the many stars. On the other hand the extra solar planets with their documented approximations of mass, orbital speed, and distances from host stars have exposed the many flaws in present day astrophysics and how astronomers predicted the formation of planets.
Several Jupiter sized planets have been found revolving in close proximity of stars at various rates of orbital speed. One example would be the recently discovered planet orbiting the sun-like G class star HD 38529 located approximately 138 light years from Earth. The planet’s mass orbital period and distance from the host star respectively is a minimum of .77 of Jupiter’s mass, an orbital period of 14.31 Earth days, and an average distance from the star is .129 AU (Astronomical Units) or 12 million miles. But how can this planetary stellar discovery hold up, if the foundation of planetary formation established in the circles of elite astrophysicists dictates, that any mass similar to Jupiter has to be a hydrogen based gas planet. Planetary formation according to present accepted theories would have cosmic objects similar in mass and size of the gas planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune coalescing on the outer edges of a contracting gaseous disk of a proto solar system where solid hydrogen precipitates around a cold rocky mass. What force would be the cause of a planet in an outer orbit to move to an interior position? The answer would be the strongest gravitational present in the local area or the host star. Any star capable of changing an orbit of a planet by gravitational attraction, would also capture it and assimilate it on impact with the solar mass. An outside gravitational force upon a planet’s capture cannot alter motion, once directed towards a stellar object. The result of this encounter is assimilation by the solar mass after impact. An orbital path is maintained by other factors still unknown to astrophysics. A repulsion force builds between the planet and the star. The point where the repulsion force, an outward force emanating from the star, equalizes the force of gravity, which draws the planet in that an orbit is established. The planet’s angle of approach and velocity determines the ellipse of the orbit. The speed of the planets’ orbit is maintained by the angular momentum of the repulsion particles at the point of intersection of the planet’s orbital distance from the star. Then there is the obvious, planetary absorption of solar heat upon approach. How long would solid or liquid hydrogen gas based planet last in an orbit that would be similar to 1/3 the distance from our Sun to our planet Mercury? The result would be hydrogen and other light gases boiling off the surface of the planet exposing the heavy elements of what was the core of the planet. Many scientists will hide behind the fact that the gravity emanating from the object would hold hydrogen even in its gaseous form. They overlooked the obvious, a rocky core surrounded by gaseous hydrogen heated to extremes would not be part of the planetary mass only its core would be responsible for gravitational force, which could not provide a containment force. A high rate of orbital speed coupled with the gravitational pull of the solar object, would rip away the hydrogen atmosphere in a close orbit. The pressure differentials would cause surface materials to evaporate and escape into the low-pressure environment of outer space. There would be a steady erosion of planetary mass. In essence, there could not be a planetary mass fitting the parameters established by Earth’s science to explain what mankind has discovered. Leaving a planetary mass similar to a terrestrial planet, which according to mankind’s theory of the formation of planets does not exist in a mass similar to a gas planet. It is time to reexamine the theory pertaining to the formation of planetary masses within a solar system.
