At https://phys.org/news/2024-08-sun-permanently-capture-rogue-planets.html … can the Sun capture a rogue planet and add it to the solar system. This is an idea once theorised as possible by a Thunderbolts spokesperson, Wal Thornhill. It is not a new idea but interesting in so far as it is now a mainstream idea. It may have wings, or legs, but it may also disappear. The idea was sparked by the visit to our solar system of an interstellar object. Oumuamua, that passed through the solar system a few years ago.

Another study at https://phys.org/news/2024-07-nuclear-physicists-radioactive-beryllium-solar.html … nuclear physicists question the origin of radioactive beryllium in the solar system. Exploding stars, we are told, are unlikely to be responsible – which is the prevailing mainstream consensus view. Indeed, the article describes in full the mainstream position of what is otherwise known as beryllium 10 – and it is clearly theoretical and therefore open to refutation. The researchers do this quite well – and they did an experiment in a laboratory. It is not another theory as such as they show that radioactive beryllium could not have originated in a supernova event as it would have been destroyed in the explosion.
