Comment on space

Also there is the assumption that the surface rotational velocity is constant over time. This is only true for solid planets without gas or liquid centers. Insides can spin at different speeds than the surface.

I don’t even know what this conversation is about anymore. You wanna go inside a gas giant now?
How about this. When you develop timetravel through space in all dimensions to “jump” anywhere at any time. Let us know.

It’s about how a theoretical time/space machine would navigate obeying current physics knowledge.
I’d like the option. I’d certainly like to land on planets with liquid cores.
Nah. Let’s design the solution now so it’s ready to be used when needed.

When developing. You solve one problem a time. So you don’t spend time trying to calculate rotation from gravity.
The beauty of a time machine on earth. Is that we can imagine most of it, and add the time travel part with our imagination to make it “plausible”
You want to add instant teleportation to any point in space at any time, while knowing everything about every planet and star including their location. Instantly.
I have a magical spell that already does everything you want. It’s called “goannoyium-someoneelsium-fuckwad”.
I already solved your little problem

Teleportation is not being added by me. It’s the topic of this entire thread. Even calculating the rotation of just the earth at other points in time is not trivial because Earth has an unobservable liquid core.
No. You didn’t.
