Yeah I thought that too, if the spirit isn't gravitationally bound earth would move away from it considerably faster. This did get me to ask myself a good question. (This isn't it) What if we assume the spirit in the comic is dark matter and preserved any momentum at the time of death? So Earth's gravity is pulling on it but not enough to overcome the momentum the spirit had when it broke off from the body. The Sun and Earth could be special in that constructed situation. The question I thought was, does the electromagnetic, strong and weak forces have anything to do with keeping me planted on the planet?
