An ice ball the size of Jupiter dotted with small little flat earths would have a surface gravity of at least 19m/s², about double the measured gravity of Earth. The real value would likely be higher, as surface ice compresses the ice below it.
Otherwise a very based theory, can't think of anything else wrong with it
Unless science got the gravitational constant wrong due to assuming the earth is small.
The gravitational constant is famously hard to measure, so I can get behind this.
Could use more elephants and turtles
(Possibly hollow)
so you're saying the theory remains undisproven? woa... O_o
I would like to throw in the possibility, that the ball could accelerate downwards relative to the habitable part.
