3220: Rotational Gravity

Rotational Gravity

Title text: I don't get it. The peak acceleration for passengers was WAY lower than in the giant-waterslide-loop-the-loop incident the other cruise line fired me for.

[Cueball stands facing Hairbun and White Hat. Hairbun has a "steaming" symbol above her head indicating anger, while White Hat is facepalming.]

Cueball: I was able to produce artificial gravity by rotating the ship along its longitudinal axis, helping passengers maintain muscle mass on the long-duration voyage!

Counterpoint the the action park thing; i think its referencing 2935 TheTrainsKid (talk) 03:26, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

For sure. It is a direct reference to that comic. I wonder if they should be seen as a two comics series? I think there is a bit too little for it. If there ever comes a third comic where Cueball is fired from a cruise line I would say there should be made a category for it though. --Kynde (talk) 08:44, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

Is he saying that the ship is rolling? This would not give as much artificial G than pitch or yaw. SDSpivey (talk) 04:53, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

It all depends on the rotation speed. It is more likely the ship would survive being rotated along that axis. Of course there would then only be gravity away from the central line of the ship. And of course the ship would not survive such a rotation. --Kynde (talk) 08:44, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

I'm sure it could survive a few rotations. More than the people could. :) SDSpivey (talk) 14:34, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
