'Cept that would also fling things like the atmosphere, the oceans, and the crust into orbit, and we sorta need them. Yea, you're right. There are a couple of things wrong with the idea. First of all, we'd have to dial in the spin rate so as just to launch the people into a graveyard orbit. Secondly, my idea would leave those who "biggie up" with a distinct advantage. Gonna have to re-think this one. But in the meantime, I think we could all walk around with our rigs on, just in case. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
