It happens all the time.
The sun releases these giant chunks of material.
And he thinks that these materials get far enough away from the planet, and then they coalesce into planets, or far enough away from the sun, they coalesce into planets.
And as time goes on, they get a further and further distance from the sun.
And then obviously they get hit with asteroids, and there's panspermia, and water gets into them from comets.
And then they develop oceans, and they develop biological life.
And when they have a certain amount of distance from the sun, they people.
And he thinks that as they get further and further and further away, they get less and less habitable.
And then they get to a point where they have their technology to a point where they realize, like, we can't sustain life on this planet anymore.
We got to go to that other one.
And so they go to the one that's closer to the sun because they're too far now.
It's a nutty idea.
It's a nutty idea.
But if you think about how recent our sun is in terms of the solar system itself, in terms of rather the galaxy itself.
So if the universe, if the Big Bang is correct and our universe existed, it was rather a universe erupted from nothing or from a very small thing 13.7 billion years ago.
Well, this fucking planet's only four point something billion years old, right?
And life is only a little bit less than that.
So you have like a billion years or so where there's nothing, and then you start getting single-celled organisms, multi-celled organisms, and eventually peoples.
And when it gets to a certain point where these people have advanced their curiosity and their innovation to the point where they can harness space travel and they use zero-point energy and they have a bunch of different things that we haven't invented yet, and then their environment degrades.
