Re: When did it change? how old the rock?
Gravity is a function of mass plus rotation...the primordeal earth developed enough mass/rotation to become a solar system body. Once the the gravitational (mass/rotation) properties stabilize to maintain solar orbit, the only effectual change to the properties can be the change in mass and/or rotation...catastrophically...I site the recent collisions of asteroids with Jupiter by example. Some of the impacts caused "earth" sized distortions to the planet as a whole, but made no difference relative to rotation and mass....so the whole thing about gravity and dinosaurs is a bunch of hooey.

Agreed
Agreed. More like wounded from the hunt...I would characterize it as a deer on the hood....a hunter bragging by mural, painting looky what I killed.

Re: Time to put this idea to bed
Airplanes that weigh over 40 lb's will have thier wings snapped off when they turn? Does this FAA know about your calculations?
