 So I made an account based on one of my concerns. After watching a video on it by the game theorists i realised gravity on the halo rings cant possibly be by centripetal force by itself. Rotating 19 times wont work. So ive come to the conclusion that its both centripetal and something else generating gravity. link to the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrLey-pX7Bc {{Unsigned|UnleadedCube}}
-*Makes sense to me. I've watched a similar video, and concluded that it must be a combination of centripetal force and artificial gravity(the c-force likely serves to simply remove some strain from the artificial gravity systems) or the Forerunners used tech beyond our understanding to negate the negative effects of c-force. That said, has it been said in any official sources? Or do we not need them, since the physics on the matter is solid? Also, please sign your comments.--[[User:D9328|D9328]] ([[User talk:D9328|talk]]) 08:01, 26 December 2017 (EST)d9328
-**I think the intent is that artificial gravity is at work. It's 0.992G according to the Halo Visual Guide. Cortana points out in The Fall of Reach (and again in The Flood) that Halo has a gravity field. Since it was noteworthy, that's where I'd say artificial is implied. Any mass exerts gravity and Cortana wouldn't call out that Mars, say, had a gravity field, but she makes a note of Halo having one.Keep in mind that Earth's gravitational influence is due to its mass. Although Halo is almost the diameter of Earth it is far less massive in the extreme, so mass alone couldn't account for Earth-normal gravity. The spin, as shown in Halo 1, rotates fully around every 34 minutes, 12 seconds. That's not enough to produce that value for gravity. -[[User:ScaleMaster117|ScaleMaster117]] ([[User talk:ScaleMaster117|talk]]) 11:17, 26 December 2017 (EST)

+:::The Forerunners do use Buffer fields (text link cause in this case I'd rather not create a link in a talk page https://www.halopedia.org/Buffer_field ) for Gravity. So its not out the question they are used on Halos. --[[User:CIA391|CIA391]] ([[User talk:CIA391|talk]]) 19:16, 26 December 2017 (EST)
