abstract = {The discovery of 1I/'Oumuamua confirmed that planetesimals
must exist in great numbers in interstellar space.
Originally generated during planet formation, they are
scattered from their original systems and subsequently drift
through interstellar space. As a consequence they should
seed molecular clouds with at least hundred-meter-scale
objects. We consider how the galactic background density of
planetesimals, enriched from successive generations of star
and system formation, can be incorporated into forming
stellar systems. We find that at a minimum of the order of
107 'Oumuamua-sized and larger objects, plausibly including
hundred-kilometer-scale objects, should be present in
protoplanetary disks. At such initial sizes, the growth
process of these seed planetesimals in the initial gas- and
dust-rich protoplanetary disks is likely to be substantially
accelerated. This could resolve the tension between
accretionary timescales and the observed youth of fully
fledged planetary systems. Our results strongly advocate
that the population of interstellar planetesimals should be
taken into account in future studies of planet formation. As
not only the Galaxy's stellar metallicity increased over
time but also the density of interstellar objects, we
hypothesize that this enriched seeding accelerates and
enhances planetary formation after the first couple of
generations of planetary systems.},
