I got it from @Leiyan's post in the second page. Can you permalink individual posts here? I'm kind of new. Anyways, one minor nitpick is the figure of 0.9 cosmere standard size. Does that refer to radius, or volume, or what? I don't have my copy of AU nearby, and The Coppermind isn't helpful. Yeah, I noticed how old this thread is, but I just saw it after your necropost, and felt inspired. All of this is honestly pretty beyond me. I just found one little thing that I knew I could help out with.

Okay, so some of the Math-fu one this topic got me inspired, so I used the mass of Roshar that @Leiyan got, and the fact that the value of the gravitational field is 0.7 times that on earth to derive the radius of Roshar (say that five times fast!). Might not be too incredibly useful for the topic at hand, but it might be interesting. So, per Newton's Laws: g = Gm/r^2 We can set g to be 0.7*g on earth, or 9.81 m/s^2,m to the mass of Roshar, or 2.1 * 10^24 kg, and G is the gravitational constant, or 6.674 *10^-11 Icanneverremembertheunits. rearrange for r, r = sqrt(Gm/0.7g)) and we get a value of 4.49 * 10^6 m, or just under 4 and a half million meters in radius. That's about two-thirds of the radius of the earth, which seems reasonable. For all you dumb yanks, that's 2790 miles. Please feel free to double check my work, I might have gotten something wrong. Also, that just might have been the nerdiest thing I've ever done.

The only acceptable situation in which under is respectable is if you have cats. Otherwise over is the one true method, and I will not accept otherwise.
