Hi Sterling, Elton, Just catching up with the mail here, as I have been out selling my book.
Contra Muller and Morrison, the most likely injection mechanism is not a companion body but rather cometary impact due to gravitational fluctuation caused by our solar system passing through our galaxy. In this case most likely a cometary impact "disrupted" an asteroidal parent body, and we should be seeing signs of this in our "samples", the L meteorites. We now have an estimated period for their "condensation", "gravitational differentiation" within the parent body. We also gain a mechanism for setting the crater count clock throughout the solar system, and once the neutron and proton production are sorted out, and the percents and travel times to other bodies, a pretty good one.
