    Nice. “Escape velocity” is intuitive if I think about gravity as a “pulling” force. But my brain isn’t big enough to understand it in a GR context, where gravity isn’t an actual pulling force but is a warping of space time. 😢

    What about galactic escape velocity? Specifically the Milky Way? Andromeda probably similar to Milky Way I assume…

      Honestly, that's what this started as and then I got really into the solar system part!! I do have the galactic one written out!!
