What part of the atmosphere does space physics become planet physics?

When the acceleration of gravity changes.

At the centroid obviously

Centrists and their centroids.

Myth busting my ass

That was some seriously corny woo peddling snake oil bull****

Meditation doesn’t have quick and easy results / at least not for most people

and it doesn’t always reduce stress / sometimes it causes stress

Woo on cable news? That's a new development.

I'd like to think there are a number of Shaolin monks being held back offstage bout to whup some yuppie ass.

Meanwhile I'm a bit disappointed that Maria didn't outright remember that measurements seem to indicate a flat universe.

Norbert Wiener

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norbert_Wiener

Quote:

Wiener always shared his theories and findings with other researchers, and credited the contributions of others. These included Soviet researchers and their findings. Wiener's acquaintance with them caused him to be regarded with suspicion during the Cold War. He was a strong advocate of automation to improve the standard of living, and to end economic underdevelopment. His ideas became influential in India, whose government he advised during the 1950s.

After the war, Wiener became increasingly concerned with what he believed was political interference with scientific research, and the militarization of science. His article "A Scientist Rebels" from the January 1947 issue of The Atlantic Monthly[19] urged scientists to consider the ethical implications of their work. After the war, he refused to accept any government funding or to work on military projects

Sounds like Wiener had a long, hard life
