Abstract


If the Universal production logo appeared above the Earth and was modelled to be a single, solid, geostationary, silver sphere, a person on Earth facing this new moon would feel a gravitational pull of 3.32 ms−2 and a pull of 0.87 ms−2 on the opposite side of the Earth. This near 400% difference would cause a permanent tidal bulge on the close side and change the landscape of Earth.
