It has something to do with heat energy. It is defined as the kinetic energy of particles, no? Something that is hot would have molecules moving around vigorously. Consequently, something that is cold  would have molecules that are barely moving. Entropy approaches its perfect state at the theoretical absolute freezing, 0 degrees kelvin, where molecules does not have any kinetic energy.


So, statistically speaking, the more kinetic energy, the more likely to create complex molecules, no?




Ah, but we have more or less comprehensive data on this solar system, no? The closest star system to us is alpha centauri, about 4 light years away. So for all intents and purposes, the solar system can be considered a somewhat closed thermodynamic system. But apparently, it does not behave like one. Not only that, it behaves completely opposite of what a closed thermodynamic system is supposed to.
