No matter how thick or dense is the atmosphere, the Shell theorem says gravity will never pull to the inner surface of the sphere. And there is still no way to keep the plates floating mid-air. | |

| Dec 8, 2022 at 14:37 | comment | added | Jobah_HigherMind | The gravitational force of the atmosphere is what pulls the objects on the plates toward the plates. And the gravity didn’t “invert” suddenly, because basically every living thing died in this event. The life just evolved to face the Core, because the other side is cold and barren. | |
