The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

A tricky question, and one I'm not equipped to answer thoroughly. I did a bit of reading, and it appears that while gravity bends space/time, magnetic fields attempt to flatten it out. However, a magnetar is a neutron star, which is very dense, and provides a significant warp of space/time due to its mass. Those would be competing effects.

This was the shortest, simplest explanation I could find. It is really fascinating, and I didn't know about this.
