Let it drag us down
It starts a little after 10:00. Perhaps you've become somewhat used to the long, slow oscillations in the colony's artificial gravity, like a ship rolling on a slow-motion sea. This is different. You begin to feel heavy, heavier; the change comes much more quickly than before. Outside the window of the observation deck, the Sun, which over the past two days had had the tendency to slowly drag off-axis to one side, veers more quickly in the other direction. The gravity fluctuation tops out at around 1.5 g, then begins to drop back down, returning to the lighter gravity and slower waves. The whole event lasts about half an hour.
