What coincidental facts can prove that the existence of the solar system was carefully designed?

There has always been a saying that the existence of the solar system, especially the existence of the earth, requires extremely extreme conditions, and under natural conditions, such conditions are almost impossible to exist. Therefore, there is a saying that the entire solar system was created!

How did the solar system come about? Modern astronomical theory holds that the solar system was born from a nebula. We have observed star systems being formed in many regions of the Milky Way. The most famous region is the Firebird Nebula in Orion M42, which is familiar to everyone. I remember that NASA had a 3D documentary about the Orion Nebula (M42) to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Hubble Telescope. The three-dimensional picture after wearing 3D glasses was very shocking. Inside the nebula, it was like a galaxy where star systems were being born, and there were accretion disks of stars being born everywhere!

The other is the famous primordial nebula accretion disk in the Taurus constellation. A protostar has been formed in the center, and concentric circles have appeared around it. A planet is born in each circular orbit. The concentric circle structure can be seen because the planet has absorbed all the dust and matter in its orbit, and the radiation from the central star has not yet cleared the accretion disk, so it will take some time before it becomes a real star system.

How many coincidences are there between the solar system and the earth that can prove that they were manufactured? Scientists believe that the solar system was not manufactured, but there is one thing that scientists have to admit: the existence of the earth is too special. The first is the orbit of the earth. We now know that all life on earth is carbon-based and water-based, so the existence of liquid water is too critical. If it is as close as Venus, the water will evaporate, and if it is as far away as Mars, the water will freeze!

It has to be just right. Scientists compared the range of the habitable zone near the Earth's orbit based on the size of the solar system. The difference between the two is like carving a line around the solar orbit with a knife, and the Earth is just in this position. Isn't it amazing? The Earth is like the chosen one. Good things are not over yet, please continue!

The formation of water: It is not enough to have the right temperature, there must also be water. When the earth was first formed, water was not actually on the surface. Most of it existed underground in the form of compounds. However, the meteorite showers during the early heavy bombardment period turned the earth into a sea of ​​fire. Under high temperatures, hydrates and water evaporated into the atmosphere, and when the earth cooled down, the ocean was formed!

Earth's magnetic field: Scientists do not know when the magnetic field was formed, but they are very clear about the benefits it brings to the Earth. The magnetic field keeps charged particles away from the Earth, and only a small part is directed to the poles, preventing the atmosphere from being stripped away and even preventing the Earth from becoming Mars!

The existence of the moon: The impact of Theia created the moon. Its existence slowed down the Earth's rotation and made its axis more stable, which greatly contributed to the birth of life.

Jupiter: The existence of Jupiter has prevented the Earth from being destroyed multiple times after the birth of life. Although it has not completely eliminated it, its strong gravity has caused many comets to be captured by this vacuum cleaner before entering the orbit of the inner planets, thus preventing the asteroids that caused the extinction of the dinosaurs from hitting the Earth multiple times.

The birth of life: Finally, the birth of life. Many friends believe that the birth of life on Earth is accidental and inevitable! But even scientists cannot guarantee whether civilization will be born if the Earth is reborn again, because it is born from countless accidental events. For example, protein is composed of more than 1,000 amino acids arranged in a certain way. If it is wrong, it is impossible to form protein! Someone described it like a whirlwind blowing through a garbage dump, and a Boeing 747 was assembled.

In fact, there are many similar accidental events, and we will not give examples one by one, otherwise this article will not end!

Was it manufactured or born naturally? Liu Cixin's short story "Maintaining God" tells the story of a civilization that relied too much on advanced technology to spread life throughout the universe, but eventually declined to the point of being unable to maintain it and drifting to Earth. An advanced civilization of two billion people is unable to take care of itself. It is an absurd and interesting story, but it raises a very sharp question!

Are we really created?

It is obvious that through this chain of creation, we can infinitely return to the civilization that created the previous civilization. Therefore, in this interesting chain, there is a civilization that is not created. Who is it? Can't it be ourselves?

According to the principle of Occam's razor, no entities should be added unless necessary. Extraordinary claims must be supported by extraordinary evidence. So don't assume that the solar system is man-made just because there are so many coincidences. For example, you can trace back 20 generations to the Ming Dynasty more than 600 years ago, when a couple gave birth to a child, and then the child continued to the modern era. Then why did all the possibilities develop in the current direction at that time? Is there a mysterious force controlling this world?

In fact, this is just a survivor bias. Just like there is a very classic question in "A Brief History of Time", why all the constants and all the possibilities in our universe are developing in the direction of the birth of life, the answer given by Hawking is the anthropic principle, because if it does not develop in this way, our universe will not be able to give birth to human beings, and no one will ask this question!

This is very interesting. Maybe there have been N universes before us, but no one asked such questions. We are very lucky that we can still have the famous three philosophical questions or another four scientific questions!

Why is the solar system like this now? In fact, the answer is very simple, it is the anthropic principle! Because there are thousands of solar systems in the universe, there may be life there, but there are more without life, and we are just one of the lucky ones!
