Reason for the Exoplanet Tilt



The orbital path of the newly discovered exoplanets (alien planets) has greatly puzzled the scientists.
Beginning from the period of Aristotle, it was strongly believed that exoplanets could exist in the outer space, just like the Solar System, and continuous searches were being conducted to locate them.
When the scientists were looking into the space to find an answer to the question as to how planets were formed, they stumbled upon the massive rotation of dust and gases around many stars in the space. 
 On the basis of this finding, it was strongly believed that when the giant space clouds had shrunk, flattened and rotated, the massive core area could have become the Sun and the dust and gases moving around it might have clustered here and there in due course and led to the formation of other planets.
As per this theory, it was also believed that since the dust and gases close to the Sun would evaporate due to its heat, all the planets in question would have formed at a certain distance from the Sun.
In the year 1992, Aleksander Wolszczan of Poland discovered an exoplanet.
But, the scientific world refused to accept his discovery.
This was because, the planet discovered by Wolszczan was a star which was capable of emitting radiation that was several times hotter than that of the Sun. 
Moreover, this planet was closely orbiting the super hot star.
Hence, questions were raised like how could a planet form so close to a hottest star? More importantly, how could that planet orbit the star in question under such an intense heat, without getting evaporated? 



This question was answered by a scientist, Dr. Marc Kuchner, that the planets closely orbiting the hottest star could be carbon planets which were formed by diamond crust several kilometres deep in their interiors. 
However, it gave rise to a question, how could diamond form in the void of the outer space?
At this point, scientists discovered many stars evaporating the gases that surround their neighbouring stars.
In addition, the British scientists discovered a moon sized diamond crystal, at the core of a dead star.
On the basis of this finding, I came to the conclusion that the planets are formed only at the core of the evaporated stars.

Particularly, I had theorized that when the hottest stars attract the stars that are in a burnt down state and evaporate the gaseous atmosphere surrounding them, the diamond crystal at the core of these evaporated stars revolve around the hottest stars as diamond planets. 
On the basis of this theory, I had stated that presently all the planets including the earth, that orbit the Sun and all the natural satellites that orbit these planets are those which orbit the Sun as planets and satellites after being formed at the core of an evaporated star and after the gases in their atmosphere got scattered in the space when they were attracted by the gravitational force of the Sun. 
At this point, the newly discovered exoplanets were completely contrary to the expectations of the scientists. This was because, the scientists believed in the Dust Disk Theory.
Particularly, as per this theory, when the giant clouds in the space shrank, flattened and rotated, the massive core area could have become the Sun and the dust and gases moving around it might have clustered here and there in due course and led to the formation of other planets.
As per this belief, the scientists expected the planets to revolve parallel to the axis in which the Sun, the central body, was rotating and also orbit it in the same direction.
But, many exoplanets behaved completely contrary to the expectations of the scientists. The puzzled scientists were unable to offer an explanation for the revolution pattern of these exoplanets. 
For example, in our Solar System, Venus is rotating from east to west which is just opposite to the rotation of Sun . 

This means that unlike the other planets, including the earth, Venus rotates from east to west. 
Collision of another planet with Venus long time ago is cited as the reason for the reversal of the spin direction of this planet in relation to the spin direction of the Sun. 
However, my opinion is, Venus is a planet captured by the Sun and it can spin in any direction. 
For example, when a boy, who had fallen into a well, is lifted with the help of a rope, he may come up spinning to his right side or left side. Similarly, any planet that is captured by the Sun may follow the Sun by spinning in any direction. 
Particularly, according to the Dust Disk Theory, as it is believed that all the planets and the sub planets of the Solar System were formed as a single system and from the beginning remained with the Sun, the Solar system is called as Solar Family and Solar Setting.
But, according to my theory, all the planets and the sub planets of the Solar System captured by the Sun due to the gravity of the Sun at different points of time. 
So, my theory may be called as joined or collected planetary system. 
Particularly, during the Sun’s travel, these planets were captured by the Sun when they came closer to it. Hence, it is not necessary that they should synchronize with the rotation of the Sun when they spin and orbit. 
Similarly, as per the Dust Disk Theory, the scientists expected all the planets to orbit in a plane which is parallel to the rotational axis of the Sun.
But, contrary to the expectations of the scientists, all the planets that orbiting the Sun is revolving the sun at different angles from the angle of the rotational axis of the Sun. 
For example, Mercury, a planet very close to the Sun, is orbiting the Sun in a plane with a seven-degree inclination from the plane in which the earth is orbiting the Sun. 
 In the same way, Pluto, the farthest planet from the Sun, is orbiting the Sun in a plane with a seventeen-degree inclination from the plane in which the earth is orbiting the Sun.
few researchers believe that the rotational axis of the sun did not inclined,but the orbiting plane of the planets are inclined

The researchers explain that the gravitation force of a planet which is revolving around the Sun from outside the Solar System and weighing ten times more than the earth, is the reason for the planets orbiting the Sun from an inclined plane. 
However, the said planet has not been discovered till date. 
At this point, the rotation and the orbital path of the newly discovered exoplanets were also found to be quite contrary to the expectations of the scientists.
For example, in the year 1995, the scientists were shocked when they saw for the first time, an exoplanet which was orbiting a star much similar to our Sun through their telescope. 
The reason for this is, the said planet which was called 51-b Pegasi, was orbiting its star in a galloping speed of once in four days, i.e., at eight times lesser distance than the distance from which Mercury orbits the Sun. 
The said exoplanet was inferred to be similar in size to that of Jupiter which belonged to our Solar System and was very hot due to its proximity to its star.
So, this planet was known as “Hot Jupiter”.
Later,many hot Jupiters were found to be orbiting a number of similar stars. 
As per the theory of Dust Disk, there is no possibility of dust and gases present near a star, which could gather to form a planet.
Hence, it was suggested that hot jupiters which formed at a great distance from its star might have migrated near it. This theory was also called Migration Theory. 
A question arose as to why do planets migrate in this way.
As an answer to this question, it was believed that when the dust and gases surrounding a star rotated and formed a planet, the hot jupiters migrated towards its star due to the speed of rotation and contraction of the disk of dust. 
According to this theory, the hot jupiters must be orbiting the central star, parallel to its rotational axis. 
Under these circumstances, a massive planet weighing ten times as much as Jupiter had been discovered revolving once in three-and-a-half days around a star that was located at a distance of 568 light years from the earth. 
This planet, named as xo-3 b, had been found to be revolving around its star at an angle of 37 degrees to the orbital axis of its star. 
The scientists were unable to explain this in terms of the hot jupiters migration theory. 
Similarly, a huge planet weighing one-and-a-half times as much as Jupiter had been discovered revolving once in two days around a star that was located at a distance of a thousand light years from the earth.
This planet, named as HAT-P-7, had been found to be revolving around its star at an angle of 180 degrees to the orbital axis of its star.
In another study, the same planet had been found to be revolving around its star at an angle of 86 degrees to the orbital axis of its star.
This means that, planet HAT-P-7 was found to be revolving around it star from pole to pole, which was quite contrary to the disk of dust theory. 


It was suggested that the reason for the planets to orbit their stars in different angles was that, another planet might have collided with them and ejected them into an tolted orbital path.
Under these circumstances, the scientists are puzzled over the finding that many exoplanets are orbiting their stars in an angle quite different from the rotational axis of those stars. 
 Till date, our Solar System had been considered as the main model and the rest of the exoplanet families were just rare phenomena. 
At this stage, many exoplanets discovered so far have been found to be orbiting their star at an angle quite different from the rotational axis of those stars. 
 Hence, the scientists opine that now the other exoplanets have become the general model and our Solar System has become an exceptional model.
But, according to my captured planets theory, it is a possible occurrence that planets like Jupiter orbiting very close to the central star and similarly hot jupiters orbiting at a different angle from the orbital axis of the central star. 
This is because, as per my theory, all the planets of the Solar System have been captured by the Sun. 
This boils down to the fact that the Sun had attracted only those evaporated stars which were moving closer to the path in which the Sun was travelling. 
Hence, it is possible that the planets may be attracted from any direction.
