Notes
gollark: This is just entirely stuff on the "Lense–Thirring effect"? What does that have to do with anything?
gollark: You're not explaining what those "electric universe" claims actually are and how the missions support it.
gollark: Well, actually, I guess your "shows gravity is related to magnetism" thing *is* specific and not supported by that.
gollark: You can't exactly be *wrong*, since you aren't making any specific claims.
gollark: It contains the word "gravitomagnetic". However, based on my advanced Wikipedia-looking-at abilities, I can see that that does not actually mean what you think it means.
