Creation Moment 7/4/2021 - Pluto Undermines Evolutionary Cosmology of Nebular Hypothesis

Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God... Hebrews 11:3
 
"Pluto belongs to a class of objects that orbit the sun beyond
Neptune, called TNOs (Trans Neptunian Objects). Astronomers regard these as material left over from the gas and dust nebula from which the solar system supposedly formed, supposedly 4.6 billion years ago. 
 
But Pluto is a problem for the nebular hypothesis
First, it does not orbit in the same plane as the other planets (i.e., the ecliptic) but at an angle of 17°. Why not? 
Second, its axis of rotation is not perpendicular to its orbital plane but tilted so that it points almost directly at the sun at present. How come? 
Third, Pluto’s orbit is not circular but highly elliptical. In fact, it occasionally comes closer to the sun than Neptune. Why? These features of Pluto contradict the predictions of the nebular hypothesis, so astronomers have had to invent ad hoc secondary stories to explain them. So much for the nebular hypothesis.

Pluto and its moons don’t support the idea of billions of years either. Analysis of light from Charon suggests that its surface is covered with active volcanoes of ammonia-rich water spewing out of the moon’s deep interior. Similar conclusions have been reached for many TNO’s. This means there must be a source of internal heat within these objects. But if they are billions of years old they should have been cold and dead billions of years ago." CMI
