btw I watched like 3 videos and am speaking from what I remember so please point out anything that I share if its wrong

the natural way solar systems form and then settle over time is extremely rhythmic, consistent, and repeated on a scale that is almost infinite to us

been watching lex Fridman and saw a podcast of him speaking to an astronomer, I can't find it now but I'll try to soon and link it. his name was Bork or Bjork I think, and he's a white dude with a stylish haircut if u look at thumbnails to find him

I'll try to explain what I remember and some is going to be wrong, watch it though it was really good: he speaks about how during the course of every solar system, it starts out chaotic. collisions every second. as it settles, and more collisions happen, more settling also happens. eventually, all the asteroids and comets form an oort cloud around the solar system. an insane amount of massive rocks and fragments that are all moving right beside eachother- give it long enough and they find their own orbit around the sun that is collisionless. ours hasn't settled long enough for these asteroids to have found their own collisionless and synchronous orbits, and you see this twice a year when earth passes through the taurid meteor stream- where Earth's circular orbit aligns with 2 points on the oval-shape orbit of these asteroids. nasa just bumped a threatening taurid meteor actually

basically what I'm getting at is that, it sounds like, every solar system, over time, settle and fall into a kind of golden age in terms of the "chaos" that is space, the perfect amount of chaos for life to begin and thrive. the sun being at a life supporting temperature + having a long life span remaining, the planets have accumulated much of the material debris vis their own gravity/moons, and the outer asteroid belt has also settled enough(still millions+ of collisions happening out there every second but is fairly contained in some way or another, and maybe even acts as a filter for catching the huge stray objects that can hit the inner planets)

just makes u wonder, how many times has earth really been wiped out by a meteor/floods caused by meteors and covered up with earth? if u watch Ancient Apocalypse on Netflix, it's amazing how far back civilizations go, so much further back than I realized- Egypt even is so much older than we thought. could be hundred thousand years+ that humans have been building huge cities and being wiped out
