To get an intuition of how weak gravity is... Burr Send a noteboard - 13/10/2012 10:33:14 PM

...and yet, its gravitational force is countered and its acceleration record broken by such pitiful creatures as us everyday without the slightest wonder that it should be possible.

An entire Earth's worth of gravity is still a real wimp.
