Question	—	World with core of fluctuating mass, phenotypic differentiation during gestation? I'm creating a fantasy planet with an interior that has a god phasing in and out of our dimension, adding to and taking away mass in mysterious fashion while keeping everything but the influence of gravity stable, including air pressure. The world will fluctuate from +50% to -50% earth gravity smoot... (more)	—	over 7 years ago
Question	—	If Earth's core gained and lost mass, what would eventually happen to the plates? If the mass came from handwaving and just increased the core's density, what would happen to the plates? If, over the course of 200 years the planet fluctuated from +50% to -50% gravity, would the plates contract and relax? Would there be more verticality where plates meet? (more)	—	over 7 years ago
Question	—	On a planet with fluctuating gravity, how would animals evolve? If the earth gravity fluctuated between +50% and -50% over the course of 200 years, what specific adaptations would be useful to account for the change? (more)	—	over 7 years ago
Question	—	World with core of changing mass, gravitational effect on tides? I'm building a fantasy world with a planetary core that gains and loses mass in a predictable manner. I want the gravity to increase and decrease by 50% in both directions over a period lasting 2-3 generations of its inhabitants. Whether or not this is strictly possible is not very important, however... (more)	—	over 7 years ago
