What is the great bombardment?

Answer 1

the great bombardment was an galtic event that rained down meteors on the planets of this solar system in vast numbers. some have speculated that this was a time our solar system moved through a dense particle mass of asteroids. as our solar system revolves around the galtic core and that core revolves around the universal core. when this happenened is difficult to ratify a time line for it only happened once. where later as a common event our solar system picks up the occasional asteroid or 2 now that have become trapped in gravitational forces and become an elliptical orbit of our sun. this also would explain the more then 200 other planetoid bodies we have out past Pluto. some believe that this is where we picked up our satellite moon around terra firma.

still others say the great bombardment is an event when we pass through our own solar systems asteroid mass located in-between planetary bodies. it is speculated that a comet of great size took out one of the solar systems planetary bodies where when it broke up, planets pass through the mass every so often until such time the asteroid mass has reached orbital unity. and we call that one the asteroid belt. much like the asteroid belt that orbits Saturn. our solar systems main massive asteroid belt is located between mars and Saturn.

and even yet others have speculated an ancient galtic war once occurred. the use of asteroid masses for bombardment is in relation to the time line of the number of impacts we have counted over our sister planets and moons.

and still further some belive the impacts of the great bombardment were a result during the creation of this solar system.

Answer 2

The late heavy bombardment, thought to have caused most of the Moon's craters happended 3800 to 4100 million years ago.
