if i remeber correctly, it just slings most of fast moving things around (roughly equally in all direction), and only slow moving things actually hit it.
slung out of the system.
that seems a bit too strong for jupiter, that seems more like suns behaviour
Jupiter’s pull is so great, compared to earth, that the ones that do get past or then pulled more towards the sun.
this seems correct.
but i have not actually done any courses on celestial mechanics, and mostly basing on yt videos that i watch, so you maybe are correct on this one.
but jupiter also slings a lot towards earth too
Not really. It does pull some in, but not directly at earth, and the majority is either “eaten” by Jupiter or slung out of the system.

At least that is how my professor described it.
