Upon hearing the name Chaoyang Star, everyone present, including Ye Weiming, perked up their ears and focused on listening to Dao Mei's explanation.
Chaoyang Star was the planet they were headed for on this interstellar journey, and it would be their next "home"!
Compared to the gains and losses within the game, news concerning their future real lives was naturally far more precious.
At that moment, Dao Mei continued, "The universe is far vaster than we can imagine. We absolutely cannot use our existing understanding of Earth to comprehend this brand-new planet."
"Let me give you a simple example." At this point, Dao Mei took a sip of the Pear Blossom Wine Ye Weiming had carefully brewed before continuing. "Everyone knows that Chaoyang Star is much larger than Earth. Its land area, ocean area, mineral resources, species, and everything else are countless times more abundant than on Earth."
"But have you considered that, according to Newton's law of universal gravitation, a larger planet also means greater gravity?"
Sanyue's expression changed immediately. "You mean..."
Dao Mei nodded. "Exactly. Chaoyang Star's gravity is five times that of Earth!"
Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone present became grave.
What did five times the gravity mean?
Taken literally, it meant that every object on that planet would weigh five times as much as it did on Earth. A pound of cotton would become five pounds, and a pound of iron would likewise become five pounds. By the same logic, your body weight would become five times what it was!
And if one thought about it more deeply, that fivefold gravity would be distributed across every cell in the body. Not only the bones and muscles, but even relatively fragile internal organs would have to endure five times their original gravitational burden on Chaoyang
