A A Chain of Miracles
Our position, outside of the spiral arms where stars cluster,
is also the safest place in the universe, since here we are removed
from gravitational forces that could destabilize the orbits of
planets.
Also, we are out of reach of the deadly effects of supernova
explosions. In any other part of the galaxy, our Earth could not
have survived the 4.5 billion years it took to make it a place suit-
able for human life.
Thanks to the creation of our solar system in this special po-
sition, life—and human life—can be sustained on Earth. This is
the reason why we can investigate the universe we live in and
observe the unequalled, supreme, spectacular artistry in God’s
creation.
The location of our solar system, just like the laws of
physics governing the universe, is proof that it was designed for
human existence.
