It would mean solar system crash by planetary alignment gravity. But
of course there is no chaos only predetermined order in a stable solar
system.

The solar system has to be a most precise instrument in order to
continue to exist.

It's durable- at least in terms of our ability- ours smarts to measure
it.

True in the short term.

Chaos in the solar system. Yeah, I suppose it's quite likely to be
there, but making an observation of such a thing seems tricky. The
place you'd expect to see it is in a Poincare' slice of planetary
orbital trajectories. To build up enough data to confirm such a thing
(via observation) would take many thousands of years. Probably easier
to find it in turbulence or molecules or someplace where things are
movin a little faster.

I really wonder how chaos and perturbation theory can go together in
astrophysics. Say you had a nice chaotic attractor going and things
get perturbed by an asteroid - what then. Either it continues the same
pattern, morphs, or goes non-chaotic. Feigenbaum's constant or
something similar may have some application for that.
