Just had to go all scientifical huh lol

Holy crap, that's as terrifying as the first time I saw it in Majora's Mask.



I'm up for the challenge.

The Stand is probably my favorite of King's stories.



Big moons and/or close moons.

Interestingly, tidal forces don't just effect oceans, but also the atmosphere itself rises and falls with the tide, and to a smaller extent even the planet's crust can be shifted thanks to those gravitational tugs. This would then not only result in the oceans rising very high, but the atmosphere thinning as it is pulled dozens of miles higher as well as seismic turmoil like more and larger earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Further, I might even be concerned that the planet and moon would end up tidally locked, kind of like the Kuiper belt object Pluto and its companion Charon. I suppose Earth didn't get tidally locked with the moon (although the moon is locked such that the same hemisphere permanently faces Earth) might be due to the fact that the Earth was rotating so much faster in its early life, having been gradually slowed by the moon's pull tot he speed we rotate at now.

That's no moon. It's a space station.

FTW.

The real truth is they said to the graphics guys, "Paint us a moon or two...make 'em really pretty," and the graphics guys went nuts.

"No, bigger! So big you can reach out and touch it! Bigger! Augh, that's too big! Pull back! Pull back!"

that's what she said?

Because Lorkhan's coming back.

And boy, is he pissed.

You know, I was wondering that myself aswell.

Elder Scrolls VI?
