what if we paused earth in its orbit today what then
@Dee earth's orbit around the sun or rotation around its axis?
@Dee@fedi.underscore.world
@DarkWitchClaire the orbit around the sun, just freeze it in place there
@Dee everything would continue moving while the earth falls into the sun
@DarkWitchClaire no, no, we freeze it in place
@Dee but we and everything else on Earth wouldn't be frozen so we'd still fly off
@DarkWitchClaire I guess that depends on how you define what's "Earth" and what's "on Earth". Like, is the atmosphere Earth or on Earth? Are the oceans? Is the lithosphere?
Either way, we'd come back after about a year, so it's all fiiiine

@Dee not if we're flying at 30kms with nothing to stop our momentum
@DarkWitchClaire it's called lithobraking!
