him saying that this is one of the most tempting traps in RC makes me feel better about choosing D but this questions still makes me want to cry 😭😭😭 level 6 ass question
Fun fact about the LHB not covered here: It is hypothesized that the sudden changes in the orbits of the gas giants may have caused the LHB to occur.
Jupiter, in particular, plays the role of the "vacuum cleaner" for the solar system, or a "magnet" for dangerous objects like asteroids. There is a belief that Jupiter rapidly started to migrate towards the sun very early in our solar system's history, meaning that Jupiter's gravitational pull/force started to clean out the inner solar system while some of the early planets were developing. Some scientists think that this may have blunted Mars' maturation and growth (especially in regards to the building of its core) and that if Jupiter hadn't stopped migrating towards the sun, Earth probably would have faced the same fate as well.
Luckily for us, Saturn started to migrate towards the sun as well, and this movement caused Jupiter to pull back from its migration path, and the two planets eventually found resonance with each other at a safer distance from the inner solar system.
Long story short, Jupiter was moody early in the solar system's history, but it's now our friend and we should thank Saturn for keeping him in check. (I guess the period of disturbance that the two caused for the LHB would be the exception)
AC A, if true, could be reasonably used as a premise to support the conclusion: LHB limited to earth and moon.
AC D, if true, could be reasonably used to attack the premise used by the author to support the conclusion: /LHB limited to earth and moon.
Regardless of the fact that attacking a premise is not the same thing as weakening a conclusion, AC A is actively involved in supporting the conclusion that the question asks us to strengthen, whereas AC D is not. Tricky question!
I get difficult querstions correct and easy answers wrong LOL what is wrong with me. I saw A and was like yeah it's strengthening the argument because it is removing an alternative. It made complete sense
I ruled out A so confidently and chose D so confidently... My first thought with A was "Ok, but just because it didn't impact Mars doesn't mean it still didn't impact others."

War crime tier question
@ratherlargeA onG. I still got it right when he showed us A and D but I can see how this one is trying to trap you in time pressure
crying sobbing throwing up dying live laugh loving rn
I understand why A is right but I would 100% get this wrong without being walked through it
wait what the hell
yea so ill be skipping questions like this on test day. what a waste of time
Daily dose of humility...
this really hurt my brain
You beat me to this comment verbatim
whattt the helllyy
oh hell no
Weakening your opponent's argument is not the same as strengthening your argument.
him saying that this is one of the most tempting traps in RC makes me feel better about choosing D but this questions still makes me want to cry 😭😭😭 level 6 ass question
I get these correct and easy ones wrong
This felt way more objective to me than some of the previous questions
this one was evilll
pain
Ignore my positive comment on the previous question, this question literally makes me want to quit studying lol
(I won't btw, just a little frustrated)
hated that ❤️

That is super cool!! Thanks for sharing
Question made by an actual supervillain
Only reason i didnt see D as being right is because you're only ruling out a small piece of evidence compared to A having multiple surveys.
pov: when you really do be comprehending
Here is how I am thinking about this.
AC A, if true, could be reasonably used as a premise to support the conclusion: LHB limited to earth and moon.
AC D, if true, could be reasonably used to attack the premise used by the author to support the conclusion: /LHB limited to earth and moon.

Mars is the closest, so if it didnt hit mars then it didnt reach the others either...
@bernardjoon1261 Mars is not the closest, Venus is. And Mars is also upstream from the rest of the inner solar system (via the sun's gravity).
