Did God Firewall Our Solar System?
- Thread starter AV1611VET
- Start date
Given that Voyager 1 has gone through this, and is fine, I'm gonna say: No.
The 'Wall of Fire' isn't a wall and there isn't any fire. It's the point where the momentum of the solar wind (plamsa) and sun's magnetic field pushes up against the interstellar medium and its magnetic field.
For a longer explanation, look up the Heliosphere.

If you vote first, I'll tell you what I think it is (without watching the video again).

Out solar system is like a leaking jellyfish squirting plasma into deep space!
I wonder if the probes will puncture the bubble as they leave?

No, he doesn't firewall people or people groups so he won't have firewall this solar system.
But mainly because there is no need. The devil is already the prince of this world and he is far worse than imaginary aliens.

No. The video title is misleading, there's definitely no fire. There is very hot plasma out there, but it's so diffuse it had no significant effect on the Voyager probes.

Well, of course it's not going to be fire as we know it.
Fire as we know it needs oxygen to burn.

Indeed. But the title is misleading even as a metaphor because that environment is not even like a wall of fire.
For example, the International Space Station orbits the Earth in the middle of the Thermosphere, a layer of diffuse plasma that can reach 2,500°C (4,530°F), but it's not orbiting in a wall of fire - in fact, out of direct sunlight, the average temperature is well below 0°C (32°F).

Of course not. This "firewall" is just a collision front between two fluid streams, one from the local ISM, the other from the Sun. It's not a physical object under tension like the balloon in your GIF.

Yes definitely!
Astronomy is a long time (life long) interest of mine, and off the top of my head then I know that not only does Earth's strong magnetic field deflect cosmic radiation and certain solar emanations that are harmful, but also the Sun's magnetic field also helps deflect additional particles (radiation) much further out.
This is only the beginning of ways Earth is protected physically here in our solar system by other (additional things, some of which are rare) surprising attributes of our star system here!
Only one piece out of several other (powerful) ways (unalike) that are even more important to protect Earth.

It's so cold in space that water freezes? That must be why the space station recovers all their pee for reuse. So it's not just floating around chunkey outside.

If you mean to ask if the heliopause exists because God wanted it to exist, then yes.
If you mean to ask if this is something specific to our solar system then no. It would exist for other stars as well.
