Ranre Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 I'm no math wiz:confused: But... It's a game, let the actors and creators of SW do that to confuse us, we just have to pretend we know it, but anyways.... I like the pic, it's great!
Blimbo Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 No it is not microgravity. It is 94% of sea level gravity. Your body is being pulled towards the center of the Earth at that acceleration. You just dont feel it due to the fact your falling. Microgravity can be felt in interplanetary/stellar space. If you don't understand or care about a subject, why do you flame it? About the space station. I'm sure OSHA would require railings on a space station. Also some sort of support personnel walkways underneath the station would be neat.
Mountainforest Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 Originally posted by Alegis well i guess its a bit too early to comment on the map though fall in space? You can't fall in space.... That's a misunderstanding. While orbitting earth or any planet, star, etc you are constantly falling. Imagine a cannon on a high mountain fireing a bullet with a enormous speed. The bullet falls down, but 'misses'earth. The bullet keeps falling and missing eart and is in orbit. That was the physis lesson of today
Cpt. Bannon Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 sorry...i meant free fall, not microgravity...microgravity (in referenc to being near earth) is what you experience while in free fall. (about -9.8x10^-7 m/s/s net force)
