Reaaadddd eeeeeetttttt.

Seriously, read it. It's a good read.

I does. Unless it has an abnormally low density, it should have high enough gravity to really hurt us. Also: With the density that low, the surface rocks should have densities approaching that of liquid water.

Yeah, but I care about not falling through the rocks and dirt.

There's liquids denser than water. People can swim in them. (They did an experiment once to see whether people swim slower in guar gum (a kind of syrup) than water. Interestingly enough, they don't.)

if you have a higher density than the object below you while taking up a low amount of surface area you will sink down.

Rock don't exactly change in density though.

Do they?

No but due to the amount of available rock the gravity would increase.

The density of a planet is an average density of everything it's made of. The surface rocks of the earth have an average density of something like 2.8g/cm3, whereas the value for the earth as a whole is something like 5.52g/cm3.

Depends on the amount of molten rock in the core

[sarcasm]No, Really?[/sarcasm] You're talking to someone who's studied planetology a fair bit.

im just tapping away at Geology, im just looking at composition of rocks not the macro crap.
