Exceptions to a Scientific Theory? the Solar Nebula Theory Gives

question 59

Essay

Exceptions to a Scientific Theory? The solar nebula theory gives compelling explanations for the many regularities of our solar system. Nevertheless, the theory also claims to be perfectly consistent with the many exceptions to its basic predictions. This seems like a glaring contradiction in which the solar nebula theory would be consistent with any observed fact and hence not a scientific theory at all (why not?). Provide a deeper resolution to this apparent paradox by explaining how some of the basic exceptions in our own solar system are incorporated into the solar nebula theory. Is it really true that the theory would be consistent with any observed facts?
