Rosh Radius

[Cougar*BkS*]

Are there any websites explaing the law of the Roche* Radius/Limit? Like for Satrun's rings...


*not sure on spelling

You're referring to the Roche Limit. See these sites for further information:

I trust that this wasn't a homework assignment that you were too lazy to do on your own.

No :D, homework is way behind me, I'm applying to NIU and thought I'd put my knowledge at work with that subject. Thank you very much for your resources, I greatly appreciate it.
