Context. It has recently been shown that the terrestrial planets and asteroid belt can be reproduced if the giant planets underwent an inward-then-outward migration (the “Grand Tack”; Walsh and collaborators). Inward migration occurs when Jupiter opens a gap and type II migrates inward. The planets “tack” and migrate outward when Saturn reaches the gap-opening mass and is caught in the 3:2 resonance with Jupiter.
