Bungie, do you even physics?

Before you read this, just know this was for fun. Let's all be happy. Okay! So something that really caught my attention is HOW THE TRAVELER FLOATS. Now, I've thought a bit about it. The only possible reasoning behind how it floats is that the traveler is undergoing a GEOSYNCHRONOUS ORBIT (also called a geostationary orbit). What this means is the traveler is basically orbiting the Earth in sync with the earth's rotation, such that the traveler is always hovering over one particular spot on the earth as the earth rotates. This is exactly how geosynchronous satellites work. BUT WAIT. Here's the problem. An object can only undergo a geosynchronous orbit if it is above the EQUATOR. The traveler is NOT above the equator, it is above Puerto Princesa (apparently) which is no where near the equator. So the traveler is clearly not in a geosynchronous orbit. In conclusion... THE AMOUNT OF SPACE MAGIC IN THIS GAME IS TOO DAMN HIGH! That needs to be a meme. Someone make it. Lol. Anyways, do you guys think the question of how the traveler floats will even be answered? It doesn't seem important, I know, but I'm still quite curious. And while you're here, what do you think the traveler IS? What could be INSIDE it? Cheers guys ;)
