gollark: Radio astronomy is also fairly expensive.
gollark: I mean, you can, but that would be stupid and no.
gollark: You can't use a claim as evidence for itself.
gollark: > About the latter half of the question, the inverse square root law would imply that the rules that generally put down magnetism are removed.What? No. It wouldn't imply that, because galactic orbits run on gravity and have nothing to do with electromagnetism.
gollark: Galaxy rotation just runs on regular gravity-driven orbits like, well, the solar system and whatnot, no? I don't know if your claim about the "inverse square root law" thing is accurate, but it doesn't seem to mean very much.
