Now as you step inside, instead of seeing particles orbiting around like planets, you see waves and ripples very_much_like the ripples that you get on the surface of a pond when you drop a stone into it.
The velocity value used is also some question; if a substantial fraction of the dust is orbiting about the Earth, only about one_third the above_mentioned average velocity should be used in deriving the mass.
There had been supper parties and teas, fetes and little balls, Mama small and pretty and gay and Papa enormously jocular, enormously possessive, the sun around which the Blackwell planets revolved.
