    Exploring the Ratio of Gravity to Curvature of the Earth

    Thank you for your response. I was sort of getting at whether or not the ratio has anything to do with the shape of the earth. The world could be square, but it is not. I'm thinking that mass causes gravity, and that things fall to the core, but then stop, or possibly some things rise as vapor...

    Basic Mathematics - Arithmetic, Algebra, Vector Calculus

    I don't know if this is what's called basic mathematics, but I've found this site useful: http://www.wtamu.edu/academic/anns/mps/math/mathlab/col_algebra/index.htm. I can vouch for it. It has Beginning Algebra, Intermediate Algebra, and College Algebra; and some GRE and THEA test stuff. This is...

    Exploring the Ratio of Gravity to Curvature of the Earth

    If I dig 2 holes a little space apart, and then they intersect straight down, because of the curvature of the earth, then there is more than one up direction from the center. The closer 2 points at an equal distance down from the surface in separate holes get to the center, the less distance...

    Behavior of Aurora Australis Around A Dark Spot on Composite Image

    On http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aurora_(astronomy ), about 1/2-way down the page, there is an image of, quote, "Aurora australis (September 11, 2005) as captured by NASA's IMAGE satellite, digitally overlaid onto the The Blue Marble composite image." Next to it, there is a rolling video of...
