So, at this weight, wouldn't the earth have fallen into the traveler by now? And if the traveler had some sort of propulsion device still online that was essentially making it outrun the Earth, wouldn't that make our planet go spiraling around like crazy as it chased the traveler?

  • Yep. The thing is that Destiny is sci-fi fantasy, and my favorite hypothesis so far is that the Traveler is a conduit for the light, not the source of the light, and it's gravity is being used to channel light to us, so it's extreme weight isn't actually in our dimension. I have little to back that up, which is why I don't mention it in the OP.

    I prefere Sci Fi over magic myself, but this game really doesn't have enough story to be sci-fi. In my book sci-fi is when they make up one or two elements and use them to explain everything that is normally impossible in very specific ways, like Star Citizen. Without that explanation, the traveler is just powered by the same mystic stuff that makes weapons regenerate ammo after a kill, warlocks float in the air by aiming their weapons, and fire burn in the vacuum of the moon... ..~MAGIC!~

    Thanks! I've made a small hobby of collecting them from forums. Here's another that seemed appropriate :) You have any you like?
