Following a Series of Experiments in Which You Are Flung

question 9

Essay

Following a series of experiments in which you are flung against walls to test the resiliency of the human body,you are ejected from the ship and find yourself in a maelstrom.Whipped by winds gusting at 10,000 km/hr,rising and falling in convective currents,you are not having a good time.On the rare occasions when you can assess your surroundings,you notice a horizon that seems to go on "forever" (or,at least,much farther than the horizon on Earth),and no solid surface anywhere.You get a glimpse of several large moons.The Sun races through your sky,requiring only about 5 hours to rise nearly due east,cross the meridian at an altitude of about 55° in the north,and then set due west.
