Reply to Why is the Oort cloud spherical? by Outliver
The Oort cloud is thought to be spherical because it is believed to be composed of icy objects that were gravitationally drawn together by the Sun's gravity when the solar system was forming. Its spherical shape is also likely due to the fact that it is composed of particles in random orbits, which generally tend to form a spherical shape due to their chaotic orbits.
