I have been following this discussion and what I see as an unstated, implicit assumption is that electromagnetic repulsion is universal and "everywhere". Therefore, participants are wondering how planets form.
Here is a "wild" ball thrown in from left field. If the proton is asymmetric in shape and behavior, then the formation of a solar system follows a different path. We can begin with nothing more than protons (atomic hydrogen), Elysium and the gravitational flux. With gravitation pushing the nebula inward, the temperature (i.e. the velocity) of the atomic hydrogen rises. Reaching a certain minimum temperature, somew of the collisions between atomic hydrogen will begin to form deuterium. One successful collision out of every sextillion collisions will do nicely. If the two protons, which fuse together, encapsulate the "electron" of each hydrogen atom, then the new deuterium nucleus does not have electromagnetic repulsion. If this were the case, the Elysium surrounding the deuterium would not be heated and "vaporized" by the electromagnetic waves coming out of normal atomic hydrogen. Deuterium would reflect light but not emit light. The Elysium would become "cold, dark, liquid-like". The everpresent gravitational flux would push the deuterium and the "cold" Elysium into a sphere. Lacking electromagnetic repulsion, the deuterium would polymerize into a growing nucleus. I am not proposing any attractive force here; simply repulsion and lack of repulsion.
I propose that a sunspot is a planet in the making. They grow; they migrate to the Sun's equator and then they finally "disappear" with montrous solar flares. They are objectively dark because they reflect light but they do not emit light. Collision between them would result in huge explosions.
Now, let's start with a large proto-sun which is several billion miles in diameter. A deuterium ball slowly forms. As it grows in mass, it aquires a very stable orbit and a very stable spin (conservation of momentum). As the surrounding solar plasma becomes exhausted - from making the deuterium which polymerizes, it falls inward - pushed by the gravitational flux. The result is a brand new planet with its own orbit and a star which has shrunk inward.
Once a new planet has lost the "protection" of a cold, dark, liquid-like Elysium, it will be subject to ordinary nuclear collisions. The surface of the planet will undergo radioactive decay. This process will be self pepetuating. The planetary core will undergo continuous, surface decay which will create all elements, and their isotopes and their isomers by random breakdown. An element will finally become stable when enough protons on its surface have their electromagnetic side exposed, thus recreating electromagnetic repulsion.
The planet would grow in size. The "normal" matter would constitute a high majority of the volume of the planet but this same normal matter would be only a tiny fraction of the total mass. Therefore, the planetary spin would remain high. Eventually, normal matter would break free of the planet and create rings at the equator. Thus, Saturn is our only "normal" planet.
But what would create moons? I propose that the passage of another planet would cause this. The two, nuclear cores of the two, passing planets would create a gravitational void between the two planets. With this void present, each planet would throw off material due to the centrifugal force of its spin. The accumulated material would collapse to form a moon. Perhaps more than one moon.
The above sequence is described in the ancient Sumerian "Epic of Creation" as currently translated. They could have observed a planet coming into the solar system. If it passed nearby some of our planets, such as Jupiter, then both planets would create moons. These ancient writers would see and report these events without understanding the how and why.
The geometric positioning and size of our planets could be explained by such a process, which involves polymeric nuclear fusion first, exhaustion of the solar plasma second, and finally the creation of normal matter by radioactive fission.
Readers need not to worry. Absolutely no one agrees with my wild idea.
