- sixstringtheory 7y agoAwesome, thank you! I’m now interested to try some back-of-the-envelope math to compare the mass of certain ice bodies to that of the moon, and the respective distances from moon to earth and, as the article mentions, Greenland to Scotland, and compare tidal differences induced by the moon, its squared inverse distance, and the gravitational effect of the ice on sea levels.
