In your very own Milky Way Galaxy, most of the planets don't even know the meaning of abandonment.

My advanced Hybrid FIL told me the lost souls of this outpost Earth, this very tiny Orb were placed on the Outer Arms of the Sagittarius (correct me if I am wrong), due to our very violent tendencies, and the threat we pose to our galactic neighbors.

And I believe that. It is common sense.
