Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for January 02, 2024

Gravity: Why fight it?

Since returning, they’ve gotten dressed and came out to this field. It’s certainly taking them long enough.

Bowling balls have holes for three digits, Marigold. Not two.

so the moon is some kind of hyperbolic time chamber… and you have become weeeek

(and probably missed dinner)

Quadrupeds would have a big advantage in changing gravity, seems to me.

They are walking like I used to whenever I would get new prescription glasses.

I feel the same way when I take off roller skates.

That’s pretty heavy, Doc.

It doesn’t take long for low gravity to get to someone. Luckily the recovery time for them will be a few minutes.

Marigold is acting like a dog when it first wears booties!

Gravity is pretty attractive.

They should have spent more time on the Moon… maybe explored one of the abandoned Lunar bases, or looked for that Viking ship..

If Marigold turned Jupiter into a planet with a solid surface, and she and Phoebe stayed there instead, standing on Earth’s surface probably would’ve felt like standing on our Moon!

Your weight on the moon would be 1/6 of that on Earth.

Gravity: It’s a real downer.

What is this gravity you speak of? I saw on Doctor Who that Newton discovered “MAVITY”

I have neropathy in both legs so whenever I walk (with the help of a walker) it feels like my legs are bowling balls. I know how Marigold feels.

But we didn’t even see them return to Earth.
