This refers to the "Grand Tack" hypothesis, which proposes that Jupiter migrated inward toward the Sun early in the solar system's history, scattering and truncating the inner planet-forming disk—until Saturn's gravitational influence pulled Jupiter back outward, sparing the inner solar system from destruction and helping shape the orbits of the rocky planets we see today.
