A Long Time Ago in a Pool Far, Far Away


via I Love Star Wars

A long time ago in a pool far, far away ... it is a period of summer time activities. Rebel spaceships, floating in a backyard pool, have won their first victory against the hot days of summer.

So, which one would you choose?

More informative than I expected from the summary I've seen in a couple places so far.

One caveat is that at distances larger than the size of a magnet, the force will start to drop off as 1/r^4, which is really fast. If you had an unobtainium small magnet that can pick up a car at 10 cm, it would struggle to pick up a paperclip at 3 meters.
