![]() This is similar to what are described as "gravity waves".
Here's what a cosmoquake feels like to human observers:
It is not possible to describe them all.
There were areas where human beings found
themselves completely weightless, and were
made mad by the feeling that they fell upward into an empty, cloudflecked sky.
There were other areas in which people
felt themselves pressed to the earth as if by
an intolerable weight. Those sensations reversed themselves within the term of three
seconds to which cosmoquakes seemed to
be limited by the nature of things. But the
areas in such uncomplicated phenomena
showed were the lucky ones.
Compare to the gravity beam from Wandl, the Invader (1932) by Ray Cummings. Comment/Join this discussion ( 0 ) | RSS/XML | Blog This | Additional
