Well, Jupiter is more than three times the size of Saturn and around half as far to the sun. IIRC gravity scales with inverse distance squared, so significantly less mass + significantly farther away means a whole lot of less contribution. --- Everything has an end, except for the sausage.

IIRC gravity scales with inverse distance squared, so significantly less mass + significantly farther away means a whole lot of less contribution. yup being ~1/3 the size and 2x as far, saturn's influence is ~8% that of jupiter's this makes me want to calculate mars' influence relative to jupiter's ok this is neat jupiter is a mere 2x as far from earth as mars, but 10^3.45 x more massive (~2800x) so mars' influence is 0.1% that of jupiter's --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. <cite>Darkman124 posted [p:878695721] in 99% of the...
