The Solar System is unique in that the rocky inner planets are protected from cometary bombardment by two large gas giants. Scientists estimate that the Earth would receive approximately 1,000 times its current level of comet impacts if these planets were not where they are. Such a large number of collisions would have prevented the existence of life on the Earth.
