Supersonic planes can fly east-west fast enough to reverse Sunsets, landing at a clock time earlier than when they took off. — PolitiTweet.org

@bendta_s: Pedanticism always welcome. But you've gotta admit that "sesquipedalian" is one of the best sounding multisyllable words around — PolitiTweet.org

Fall towards Earth. Fall towards the Moon. Fall towards Mars. Fall towards anywhere at all, you'll be weightless in zero-G — PolitiTweet.org
Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson
Earth's gravity extends to infinity. To experience "zero-G" simply requires you move through space without rockets firing. — PolitiTweet.org
