if you rub two things together, there are only two shapes which could possibly remain in constant contact. the first is perfectly flat which is very hard with only two surfaces (easier with three) the second is hemispheres and if you do the

Same for fireballs, I have heard _very_ experienced, thoroughly rational amateur astronomers claim they "heard" a fireball when it is clearly at least 60 miles away and the sound waves can't arrive for another 7 minutes. We t

Wouldn't the g-force direction always be the same (away from the center) regardless of direction of spin and zero at the inflection between spin directions (normal gravity excepted)?

I suppose it boils down to what is implied by your meaningfully. Will guess gross morphology and adaptation to ecological niche. In a sense one could argue sharks are more highly evolved because they out competed (or were luckier than) our
