Science news recently reported milky way rotates faster than thought - hence more mass. How does this work out for a single planetary body: If rotation is accelerated, my thought was: less gravity, bec. higher centrifugal force. Now, I'm thinking - more mass due to rotation hence more gravity. For discussion, let us assume an earth-size body made of identical solid material which cannot "fly-off", no geostrata with different properties.
On a sidenote, if the rotation->mass increase is correct, we should be able to decrease gravity here on Earth below an elevated, smooth, large globe, as we let it spin fast. Has this been tried ?
Thx for comments !
