In Response To: Re: Speculation on water loss (Grady) : I've seen speculation that Halo has low gravity; it : would probably be possible to get a good estimate of the rotation rate : from that vantage, so if we could find the radius, we could *calculate* : the gravity. : --Grady Well, after some fallinging, pushing, grenadeing, and throwing things off the lower floor of the first bridge in AotCR, I've determined that Halo's gravity is (disappointingly) about Earth's gravity. My better trials were giving me between -9.3 m/s and 10.0 m/s, and Earth's gravity is about -9.8, so I assume that's what it is. The sniper rifle does measure in meters, correct? (the "better trials" were between 5.3 and 5.5 seconds for a drop of about 140 to 145 meters) Now to find how fast Halo has to spin...
