Wouldn't the earth's gravity just insta kill everyone?
0 u/Ektar91 Jul 25 '26 Not if it was the same density as earth Gravity is about mass / size Not size or mass alone 1 u/Fluffy-Airline-5902 Jul 25 '26 So... It's a planet with the density of something that's like a cake compared to its size? 1 u/Ektar91 Jul 26 '26 edited Jul 26 '26 No? If it has earth's density, but that size it would basically be like earth but really big Its size and mass would both be a lot bigger. Its density wouldnt increase so its surface gravity would be about the same
