Chaos: A New Solar System Paradigm

The recent 3,000 year period of solar system chaos revealed in Dance of the Planets 1 - The Earth implies that the planets involved are profoundly different from what is currently believed based on the notion that they have been in their current orbits for billions of years. We claim that most planetary orbits and features observed today are a direct result of cosmic interactions which occurred within the last 6,000 years. Specifically: Jupiter is a solid 'snowball' with a rocky iron core; Venus, the Galilean moons and the main belt asteroids are less than 6,000 years old; and Mars is the collapsed outer shell of a living planet, which was stripped of its atmosphere and water during the period of chaos, and finally torn asunder by the tidal force of the Earth only 2,700 years ago. Extensive analyses of spacecraft data are used to corroborate our hypotheses. We also cite numerous cases in which valid data was misinterpreted or dismissed outright by scientists because they failed to corroborate the currently 'acceptable' hypotheses.
