The latest research results suggest that something dramatic once took place in the solar system: billions of years ago, a foreign star collided with our home world – and came closer to our central star than the Voyager probes are today! And indeed, the consequences of the stellar visitor may still be felt: After all, it not only drastically changed the orbits of the trans-Neptunian objects, but also significantly influenced the moons of the large gas planets! But how did the stellar passage unfold in detail? Why did it have such a major impact on the structure of the solar system – and what lessons can experts learn from this unique encounter?
