the sun’s gravity at it’s surface is about 27.94 x earth’s gravity at the surface, from what I just read

it probably sounds like a dumb question to ask is there anything special about those numbers and the geometries and forces at work between them, because clearly the sun keep’s the earth in its orbit, not at all unimportant.

but I was wondering if anything else has ever turned up in math that might hint at something more.

the orbits changed over the eons, granted, and mass of both likely.

gravity clearly communicates mass, so i’m looking for something special in the numbers. God perhaps.

I don’t recall there ever being any mention of an effect by any stray god particle.

There is a startling coincidence in the numbers. Not numerology, just physics. Almost enough to make one believe in a God.

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Venus, Saturn and Uranus are all within a few percent of that on Earth. So close that we wouldn’t notice any difference. How’s that for coincidence?

that’s the type of thing i’m looking for, anomalies that indicate sweet spots (so to speak)

No.

Also note that the sun’s mass is changing, as is the earth’s. The ratio of the sun’s mass to earth’s varies over time.

reckon I said that

distance and energy output and a few other factors are sort of ideal.

says that Venus and Uranus are about 10% different. Saturn is 6.5% different, which is pretty close I suppose, but it depends where you measure it of course.
