I think "this next generation of scientists"
will require a reset
as the head of the Rosetta Mission stated
"We need to rethink the formation of comets and the origins of the solar system" (paraphrased)
that would require having no bias as to the "preferred way" or "preferred starting ingredients"
whether its aliens,God,EU, or accretion theory, etc
any proposed theory should be able to explain new discoveries without major additions
i.e., how does the distribution of dark matter affect the accretion theory?
since the accretion theory was proposed before the dark matter "discovery"
all known data should be shown
justification for any dating shown be shown,
such as radionuclides, rather than "billions and billions" of years ago
