Understandably. Our knowledge of The Universe is pretty primitive and we are only just beginning to explore the outer regions of our own Solar System. I have a question I have been eager to obtain an answer to. Obviously the answer would be speculative as per to my question. As Such an event has never been witnessed. Here goes:
I refer to a Sanrio where a binary solar system exists. Both system have their own star and orbiting planets. Should one of the Stars go Supernova and the surviving Solar System is at a safe distance as not to be affected by the collapsing Star. Would it be possible for the outer planets in that Solar System which had collapsed-to take on a new orbit within the surviving System. I.e. detach from the collapsed Star and find an attraction to the remaining system which is yet close enough to draw the planet into the new system and incorporate the planet into the Remaining Solar system. A question probably not too important, but it originated from a theory I have and that is. Would it be a possibility for a star to Orbit a planet PROVIDED that planet is larger than the Star. Any constructive answer would be so appreciated.
