Story line
"In any area where there are no fully satisfactory theories -- there is an opportunity for the amateur student to make a real contribution. In the field of solar system genesis, there is no fully satisfactory theory -- and this new theory, I feel, offers some highly interesting new approaches. How 'close' is a 'close passage' of just-forming proto-stars? Ten billion miles? A hundred? What happens when a stellar core plows through the 'atmosphere' of such a proto-star at Mach 50 or so ..?"
