Literally why would this not work as a planet? The moon gravities would be enough to balance everything

gravity

>>16833244
wouldn't that have variable gravity? I guess it would collapse over time.

I'm pretty sure the earth needs a spinning iron core to generate a magnetic field to protect the atmosphere from solar winds, otherwise the atmosphere would get wiped out. Maybe if there was a moon made of iron in the centre it would work, I don't know

It would be more efficient to have the sun and moon fixed on either face of the disc. Eliminating the central hole would maximize surface area and people can simply choose whether they want the day or night side, or commute back and forth via tunnels as needed.

>>16833244
It would be very stressful.
For it.
But yeah maybe.
The friction and centripetal force of the core spinning around might tear it apart. Assuming it can spin. If it can't then no magnetic field. But if the sun was so tiny maybe the radiation wouldn't be so bad. But if the sun was this tiny I don't know how it would sustain fusion.

it wiuldnt work because the moons wouldnt do that

Tell me more about the satanic middle moon, NOW.

RIGHT
FUCKING
NNNOOWWWWW!!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I asked this also in a thread a while back. but for a sun.

You can run the sim for yourself on a decent gaming rig.


Regardless of the solver you use, and even with all the particles having the same velocity it basically collapses into a square, then a ninja stare, then the two halves collide with each other and spin off into two planets with opposite rotations.

As for why this happens, ask the mathfags.
>>
>>16833244
im almost 99% sure this would be more stable if the sun wasn't flying through the middle of it all the time

the main issue you have with this idea is entropy. gravity is an all reaching force, each side of the torus is pulling on the other, causing a net force to coalesce into the center. I think in theory a structure like this is perfectly feasible (especially without the random moons and sun being right next to it) but the planet would need an extremely dense core, like fucking neutron star levels of density, and even then theres no way the center wouldn't accumulate tons of water vapor and light gasses, it would 100% be a cloud.

I guess you could build this but make it retardedly huge, like, give it the diameter of plutos orbit. at that scale the torus would be so large that none of the forces from the opposing side would have a meaningful impact.
>>
>>16833244
The surface gravity would be very weak and drag towards the disc center.
>>
>>16833244
a star is something that is big and heavy enough to sustain fusion in its core.
if your planet is so significantly bigger than a functioning star, it would either have to be a star itself, or at the very least be similarly massive.
the surface gravity of the sun is around 28 times that of earth. expect something much higher for the thing you drew.

>>16833361
don't worry about that, lol
>>
>>16833244
the upper moon would fall onto the planet
>>
>>16833244
because space exerts the same amount of pressure on all sides of an object just like water (because the ether is a liquid) therefore all objects in space that form naturally will always be a spheroid

Oh is that maybe what it is? Whats the crappier thing than the particle after the wave function again? We all have on of that!

One of that* each. Evidence, inverse square attraction of mass bodies
