This is just an absurd question, but I kind of thought it was funny, so I'm just gonna pop it.

I was thinking that in a world with infinite posibilities, there would be a chance that one religion actually was right. I kind of thought the odds of that would be about the same as having all the plants in the solar system line up in one straight line on one side of the sun.

The question is, will that ever happen, or have happened in the past? And if it is possible, how would that affect the physics of the sun and the solar system?

My immediate reaction was, "What, Day of the Triffids?"

As to the question, I'm not sure.

I Imagine that all the planets on the same solar plane aligned some time in history.

Don't look up.

I think that someone with the right knowledge would be able to calculate if it is possible. It could be that two planets have a certain speed so that it would be impossible for them to line up. I don't know.

But I am also thinking that all the planets on one side could cause a powerful gravity reactoin on the sun. For all I know, all kinds of funny things could happen. Maybe even the combined forces would cause one or more of the outer ones to fly out into the milky way?

I once had a beautiful crop of plants there were beautiful aligned, but the cops took them away lol.

But right now we only know of one planet with plants so, by definition, all plants are always on one side of the sun.

Those monsters! I'm talking about the plants obviously. Lol

Then, what if we implant plants on all the other planets? The cops won't come to Mars anytime soon, hopefully.

It happens.
Just doesn't significantly affect anything else.

Quote:A conjunction of Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn occur on average every 57 years. In 1962 the Sun, the Moon and the five visible planets were all aligned and nothing happened!
