Neither was stated in comics as being active. However, there was no catastrophic results on the surface (w/c is ridiculous). It was also never stated that the gravity weapon was preventing Thor from sinking into the ground but guess what? He wasn't sinking. You cannot prove nor disprove either. You're using a double standard in accepting one explanation and denying the other.
The point? I reiterate: It is retarded to use real world computations in comics.
Except that we've never seen his aura protect anything from a very long range when he wasn't in contact with it (unless you've got scans to prove otherwise). He wasn't in direct contact with the planet when he pulled it. He was using either a GL construct or WW's lasso.
The lasso is magic so that means we can throw real science out of the window. Thus it is moot of how the Earth was protected.
Thor doesn't have infinite strength and neither does the scan prove it.
If Thor had infinite strength then everyone in the MU would have infinite strength. This can be shown by the following logic:
Nefaria stopped Thor's hammer strike thus he has infinite strength.
But Nefaria couldn't stop a 90ton vision from landing on him. Thus 90 tons is infinite. But a fraction of infinity is still infinity. Thus everyone has infinite strength.
Thor struggled "Arggh" to crush coal into a diamond with his infinite strength. Thus it takes infinite strength to crush coal into a diamond.
But since it takes finite strength to do the same then a fraction of this finite strength is still infinity and thus everyone has infinite strength.
Infinite strength implies infinite physical durability. Otherwise one couldn't support infinite force pressing on their body. So since a bullet harmed Thor (and other finite forces) once then the bullet had infinite force on it. But since a bullet has finite force then a fraction of this finite force is still infinite. Thus everyone can exert an infinite force.
we all know the lasso is magical but as far as i'm aware of it can
1. make people tell the truth
2. make people follow or obey wonder woman
3. is unbreakable
4. am i forgetting anything?...oh yeah right! according to you it can now project protective shields and surround any object it its wrapped around and protect it from harm! WOW I DIDNT KNOW THAT!...
does anybody else know that?
and again, your trying to use real world logic in comics. lets use some of it shall we. flash can move at the speed of light, but a lot of his villains have no superspeed yet they can tag flash very often, this must mean that everyone who has hit flash has lightspeed speed.
superman has insane durability can can tank planet busting punches yet is knocked out by a gas station, this must mean that gas station explosions in dc has more force than a planet busting explosion. superman has also been hurt by lesser characters, hell even batman got to hurt superman. this must mean that batman and every other villain whos hurt superman has strength comparable to superrmans...
However, based on your own argument, the "magical nature" of the lasso ALSO makes the pulling feat moot as its "magical nature" means we cannot use real world science in estimating the amount of force needed to pull the planet due to the fact that the "magical nature" of the lasso may have also negated the other fundamental forces that may have been affecting the Earth at the time.
Meaning that if magic protected the Earth's surface from the effects of them pulling the planet (w/c takes a WHOLE LOT more than actually pulling it), then it may have also negated the gravitational forces in play on the planet. Having a magical variable in the equation throws out your whole "computation" altogether.
