Rotational kinematics - possible and impossible spin-ups
In this first case as pictured below, an ice skater takes advantage of the conservation of angular momentum to increase rotational velocity by bringing their arms in. However, forces and torque need to...

This post is to demonstrate that the conditions for CB via collision require highly balanced rotational and translational components in two similarly sized objects for them to retain their...
View ArticleMy ideas for Haumea (Plutoid, TNO)
Haumea has been found to be elongated, with two moons, a ring, and not in hydrostatic equilibrium but rotating fast enough that centrifugal forces match mutual gravity near its extremities.Knowledge...
View ArticlePHILAE versus 67P don't forget the AM
Most analysis on why Philae "bounced" on the surface of 67P focus on the various failures of the legs, jet, screws and hooks which, if even one worked well, should have stuck the landing. My hypothesis...

A.(not foolproof way) The way that I have been taught is via "the literature" in short, but essentially, if the theory is backed up by the conclusion of a paper, and the theory (or a paper concluding...

I am not one to willingly learn from someone else's work, and use my position of privilege to twist things around to claim it as my own. However, that is a very regular occurrence in Theoretical...
View ArticleInformation and Secrecy are the keys to modern civilization
The first thing that got me on this quest to find how civilization persists and functions is the observation that past civilizations are quite vulnerable to chaotic influences. Without strict order in...
