How freaky is the universe?

[Vannaroth]

So the earth is spinning round and round, and we're orbitting the sun, and our solar system is spinning around and around in the milky way, and then that's spinning around whatever, and I can STILL balance a pen standing on end on my desk. Does anybody else think that is as cool as I think it is? Talk about stability....

Its called Gravity.

Get a girlfriend :P


(Don't take as an offence)

Yes, we're relying on an intangible force that we can't see, contain or fully understand to keep us in place as we whizz through the universe.

Yet people still get motion sickness.

We can create gravity, therefore we can contain it

Everything has a gravitational pull.. You need an obkect in order to have it, you can't just wave a magic wand and create it in a test tube.

Magnets r fun, talk bout magnets and how we can make the most of the magnetic force ^_^

no, we can simulate the effects of gravity.

I often sat and thought about stuff like this, and it is amazing tbh.

 

[MiloFoxburr]

A huge magnetic force in the middle of the earth creates gravity does it not?

Therefore If we go somewhere without gravity (i.e Space) and stimulate gravity that would actually be creating gravity cause it never existed there lol

no.

There is still gravity in space, you are further away from some large masses, therefore the force affects you less. Gravity is the pull of mass, you can simulate this using a fly wheel, or relativity, but you cannot create it.


edit: and its not ****ing magnetic.

Hows the emu coming along konni?

We're actually doing quiet well now, we've find a guy to do the encryption for us, so its gonna be smooth sailing one thats done!

Sorry for lack of screenys on the site, had a forum crash a few months ago.

Gravity is a theory :O

Gravity is a theory :O

wooo!

I thought gravity was created by verry large objects?

pretty much, but its still a theory.

Bloody Newton n his apple..
