    B Earth & Moon Gravity Gradient: Investigating Its Impact

    @DrStupid I only mentioned circlular orbits, so distances relative to Earth and Moon remain constant, @PeroK Yes i confirm that i originally imagined the Earth and the Moon in inertial (rotating reference frame) , with our "camera" looking from the top like that (circles represent the...

    B Earth & Moon Gravity Gradient: Investigating Its Impact

    @PeroK & @davenn I dissagree, I think that @Keith_McClary is the first guy that suspects I am describing the problem from rotating frame, so introducing centrifugal force was smart. Its not a bad answer its a different POV. You can all blame me for not defining a frame. @Charles Link thank...

    B Earth & Moon Gravity Gradient: Investigating Its Impact

    Thank you Keith 🙏 , that makes perfect sense! I completely ignored centrifugal, maybe I was too focused on the Moon it self. From what i understand, Earths pull completely canceling out at lunar orbit distance, due to the motion of the Moon. A man orbiting at the center of the Moon (instead of...

    B Earth & Moon Gravity Gradient: Investigating Its Impact

    Sorry but i don't get your point, Let me be more specific: I think i used this exact equation (or sort of) : G, M, and m are constants (M=Earths mass, m = mass of astronaut and G is constant by definition) So i assume Earths gravity can be calculated based on distance alone and here is how: 1...

    B Earth & Moon Gravity Gradient: Investigating Its Impact

    Hello everyone, happy holidays! Y/day i googled that question (see title), and i found no clear answer, and I was really suprised, So I had to investigate my self, this is a super basic question, Let me know if i got this right: Earth R: 6,371 km Moon R: 1,737.1 km d1: 384,400 km (center to...

    Falling apple inside a space centrifuge

    Just a note, it looks like an offset simmilar to the example, is a constant for a specific size of space centrifuge (radius), so regardless of artificial gravity amount ( regardless how fast we spin different ω and V), we get same offset for specific r and h. Unless of course the structure is...

    Falling apple inside a space centrifuge

    Im not really sure for the terms that ill use, but I think you can surelly call this Artificial Gravity and you can add maybe if you want "generated via spinning" to define what type of artificial, or you can use "with centrifugation in space". We talking about a substitute of gravity not real...

    Falling apple inside a space centrifuge

    The space station is spinning with a linear tangetial speed Uc =20.13715 m/s at the circumference which is enough to produce Artifial Gravity 0.1654g (moon) for that radius 250m. Maybe i had to use the symbol V instead i just capitalized the lowercase symbol looks like a u sorry for that.

    Falling apple inside a space centrifuge

    When a mass is in a circular motion and suddenly gets released by its centripetal force, it will continue traveling in a straight path (tangent to the circle and perpendicular to the radius in the moment of release) if no other forces acting. So let’s make a case: We have a space centrifuge...

    Artificial gravity concept -- Rotating structure in space

    :woot:I still try to figure out what awesome answer you just posted right there sir! Thanks A LOT, you saved me, big time! Since my construct is almost always in uniform circular motion, is good to know that the shape of circle will be preserved! I was in the middle of a painful process to...

    Artificial gravity concept -- Rotating structure in space

    Hello Everyone i did a simulation and want to show you an interesting visual, for discuss. One "weird" aspect of the Artificial Gravity is that: it increases linear with the radius. I call this "Weird Gravity" (WG). It sound not a big problem in the start. Bellow is a snapshot from a simulation...

    How do fluids behave in a space centrifugal structure (artificial gravity)

    Hello boneh3ad. What troubles me is the cause of Coriolis, the gradient also but not so much. Let me give you an example. In the image bellow we assume that we have our centrifugal full of a liquid let's say water. The water is completely stable at start. Stable requires particles to move...

    How do fluids behave in a space centrifugal structure (artificial gravity)

    How fluids would act around the circumference of a space centrifugal, where the habitable zones are. Given that we have a radial gradient of Artificial Gravity , plus Coriolis, inertia, frictions etc. Id expect some change. Will add a list of questions but this more like an open discussion...

    Artificial gravity concept -- Rotating structure in space

    That must be it! It sounds really advanced. I did some research on the web, but i can only find real bridge mechanics. Catenary maths alone melted my brain I believe that the nature of Artificial Gravity will result to much different formulas. Anybody happen to know a similar research...

    Artificial gravity concept -- Rotating structure in space

    That is an interesting idea, could be useful, thank you. -- By the way guys just to let you know ill stick with that design and try to support since I am already writing lot of pages + i see some clear advantages that I am happy with, but all conversations / ideas are welcomed. I would like to...
