I usually follow it up with, "I mean, would everyone just go flying off?" I like to amuse my sort of sciency-type friends. Well, that, and I kind of want to know.

Repost:

Some screencaps from SG-1: Affinity.

[link]

Mostly to get some shots of the woman who will be playing Lois Lane on this season's Smallville, but the members of SG-1 were not neglected.

The thumbnails are a bit blurry, but the actual images are not.

I am particularly fond of #1 and #15, Teal'c, then Jack (unsurprisingly on both counts). If I had a clue how to make icons, I'd ask you if I could use them. So pretty.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

JenP has a speculative/generative mind like mine. I think, if the world suddenly stopped spinning, that flights from London to the US would not be as short as they routinely are (basically the plane gets extra help from the earth rotating under it).

Also, 1/2 of the globe would suddenly come down with insomnia.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

1/2 of the globe would suddenly come down with insomnia.

We'd still get night and day, though. Not sure how long they'd be, but it's not the day=year scenario above, which is what robs you of it.

I didn't do the math, I googled instead, and so far if it stopped rotating tides would sweep us off anything near a coast, hopefully before the moon's orbit shrank so much it got all up in our business. Winds would get simpler, though.

So far.

I'm doing the same thing. I'm getting boiling oceans and water swept planet ... which means boiling hot water everywhere? Short answer to the quetsion, then: Nothing good.

Boiling oceans? I'm not getting that, except for the year=day scenario.

I'm starting to lean towards an artificially generated shadow field...or "magic."

JenP, many of us can make LJ icons for you, and my screencaps are free to be used by any Buffista. (Besides, I do not own the intellectual property I am screencapping.)
