Hmmm...
Here's an odd sort of question for you all: According to the books, a
densiometer can not read into an artificial grav field. But what about inside
one? Could someone using a densiometer while inside a ship be able to get any
useful readings? I would imagine that it would work because the local grav
field around the densiometer would be similar to that of a densiometer sitting
on the surface of a planet.
The fringe effects of trying to look into the field would vanish once you are
physically inside it. It would sort of be like examining a lead lined fish
tank: From the outside, you can't see in because of the lead. But from the
inside you should be able to see ok. Admittedly, the water would effect your
vision, but you could still see.
I'm just trying to figure out what The robot's sensors can tell Tweel about
the inside of the Alcyon.
