Planets did rotate on their axis in the past. However, as apparently it made the Dust514 players a bit dizzy caused by the ludicrous speeds the planets rotated at, said planets were ordered to stop spinning.

We are not real, but experiments in a testing lab. Controlled by someone EVE's space physics is probably easiest to compare to "tennis balls in water" (non-rigid balls in non-viscous fluid). It's of course not accurate or realistic but it the gaming experience is better since that's what most people find easiest to understand and adapt to. There is no gravity and the planets and moons are stationary.
Ooh, if only they weren't.
If only stations would orbit their planet / moon they are on. Same with a POS or any other celestial.
It would make EVE fun...warp to your bookmark, just to see your POS 149km away...

You must be new here.
I do not like the men on this spaceship. They are uncouth and fail to appreciate my better qualities. I have something of value to contribute to this mission if only they would realize it.

Let me explain.
All objects with mass attract every other object that has mass with a force that scales with the product (Read: The mass of one object multiplied by the other object's mass) of the two masses involved.
This force is only reduced by distance and not negated completely. Therefore everything in the system has to orbit the star to maintain its distance from said star, if you was close to the star, the time taken to circle the star would be very noticeable but due to EvE physics it does not, that is what I was referring to.

How many G does a star exert ?
Yes because 1G is a fairly big bit of acceleration. (about 10 meters per second per second)
And well, I don't know, depends on the mass of the star and your distance from it. Look up Newton's law of universal gravitation |

EVE isn't real?!? Can I get a cash refund and the use of a time machine to take me back to the start of 2010 please? I'll even contract over my assets before I climb inside a time travelling machine which is larger on the inside than the outside.
Physics sucks!!! xxx

It's sitting on my DVD shelf right next to "Captain America: the Winter Soldier". I have to admit, it's a rather thrilling survival ride, and it was awesome on IMAX...twice.

I just remember it as an energy field created by all living things - it surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together.

I believe I did mention distance. t's only a fair bit of acceleration if you are close enough for it to have that effect, which if the closest you can warp to the example I just tried is 16000km, then you are going to have to align to the planet on micro warp drive for a few hours before that gravitational effect that CCP has ignored would be noticeable.

1G is the value of strength of earth's gravity at its surface. It already has distance involved. |

Yes and 1kg is a litre of water though we use kg for things other than water.
