Solar system may fall apart sooner than scientists thought

Original: The solar system will fall apart far sooner than anyone thought, scientists say

Scientists now say the solar system will break apart far earlier than previous estimates suggested. According to the claim, the stable arrangement of planets orbiting the Sun will not last as long as models once predicted, with the system eventually destabilising and the planets' orbits spreading apart. The finding has drawn widespread attention, with many readers surprised that something as seemingly permanent as the solar system's structure has such a shorter timeline than assumed.

Why now: A new scientific claim dramatically shortens the expected timescale for the solar system's stability, surprising the public
