How much acceleration is 280 yd/s²?
280 yd/s² (26.108g) is extreme acceleration — comparable to an ejection seat firing (12-20g) or a crash-test dummy at moderate impact.
Did you know? Sun surface gravity (28g) is 274 m/s².
The Sun's surface gravity is 274 m/s² — 28 times Earth's. You'd weigh 28x more standing on the Sun.
