Our solar system is not protected from the rest of the galaxy. Why?


Fresh explanation of the solar system's borders have unwavering that the Sun moves through space at a speed lower than estimated so far, prevent form the bend over shock that evidently marked the border between our solar system and interstellar medium. The discovery suggests that the protective boundary that separates our solar system from the rest of the galaxy that has no bend over shock, which could have implications for how much radiation (in the form of galactic cosmic rays) coming into our solar system.
