- Around our sun? Now? No, the orbits are all too regular and the spaces between planets have been swept clean by near miss gravitational ejections and long past collisions.
- More than about 3.5 billion years ago when the spaces between orbits still contained many large protoplanetary bodies with very elliptical orbits: yes collisions were very possible.
What else can I help you with?
Is it possible one of the Moon's of planet x will collide with earth or another planet?
The likelihood of a moon from another planet colliding with Earth or another planet is extremely low due to the vast distances between celestial bodies. However, in the very distant future, gravitational interactions or orbital disturbances could potentially lead to such an event, but this is highly improbable.
Does Earth go into Saturn?
No, Earth does not go into Saturn. Saturn is a planet in our solar system that orbits the Sun, along with Earth and other planets. Each planet has its own orbit and does not collide or enter another planet's orbit.
Will Neptune and Uranus ever collide?
No, Neptune and Uranus will never collide. Their orbits do not come anywhere near one another.
Why do scientists gather as much information as possible about the other planets?
My thinking is that scientist are trying to bring life in another other planet just in case our planet run out of resources.
Is it possible that another planet we haven't found is following earths orbit?
Not a planet of any significant size, which would be easy to see, but it is possible that some pieces of rock are in a similar orbit to the Earth at the five Lagrangian Points of the Earth's orbit.
Is it possible for a black hole to collide with a planet?
Obviously it is possible, but in the short term - or even for the next billion years or so - it is extremely unlikely for Earth to collide with a black hole.
What planet did Earth once collide with?
Earth did not collide with a planet. If Earth collided with another planet, it would have been smashed to smithereens and wiped from existence, then over billions of years the debris would have formed into a series of lifeless moons. It is believed however that a large-ish object, most likely a small moon or large asteroid, did collide with the Earth. The debris from that impact is believed to have created the moon that orbits Earth. So, a planet did not collide with Earth. But it's possible a small moon or large asteroid did. This is only a theory, it has not been scientifically proven. The theory is called the "giant impact hypothesis".
Will earth ever collide with another planet?
The likelihood of Earth colliding with another planet in our solar system is extremely low due to the vast distances between planets and stable orbits. However, in the distant future, gravitational interactions between planets could potentially lead to collisions, but the probability is still very minimal.
Can a star fall on you?
It is possible for Earth and a star to collide with one another. However, the possibility is extremely remote.
Will earth crash in to any other planets?
No. As of current known orbital data, the Earth will never be in a position to collide with another planet.
Is it possible one of the Moon's of planet x will collide with earth or another planet?
The likelihood of a moon from another planet colliding with Earth or another planet is extremely low due to the vast distances between celestial bodies. However, in the very distant future, gravitational interactions or orbital disturbances could potentially lead to such an event, but this is highly improbable.
It will be possible to colonize outer space or another planet?
Yeah, eventually.
Will planet Nibiru collide with Earth?
No, because it doesn't exist.
Can you have a eclipse on another planet?
Eclipses of their moons can be observed on any planet that has them. But, interestingly, the spectacular "total solar" eclipses are not possible on any other planet but Earth.
Is it possible planets collide with another?
In the early stages of planet formation, planets did in fact hit other planets. Mercury, Earth and Uranus all have signs of planetary impacts. Nowadays, the solar system is stable and a planetary collision is highly unlikely without some form of external impetus.
Is it possible for planet to collide with one another?
In the early days of a solar system planetoids can collide with each other on a regular basis, but after the formation of regular planets with orbits, it would be hard to imagine a planetary collision. There would have to be a significantly influential gravitational force, perhaps from a passing star, to alter the orbit of a planet to set it on a collision course with another. We've seen examples of this with exoplanets, where one world's orbit was altered so much as to be made to orbit in the opposite direction of it's star's rotation.
Is there snow somewhere in the universe on another planet?
Its possible, even probable. It would need to be cold (not extremely, but enough for it to snow) and there would have to be water on that planet.
