I found it rather ironic and amusing that the January 2005 Sky and

gut feeling and intuition are better than math here!


Hint: the small bodies that were flung out by Jupiter early in the
history of the solar system had the combined mass of a planet.

You didn't do very well in high school physics, did you?
