Likely this has been hashed-over before but I've never really gotten a grip on the subject, no pun intended.
I understand the function and necessity of grav-plates in a starship's decking, that's pretty much a no-brainer but where does the function of inertia dampers come from ? More-so is it a separate set of hardware working alone or in-conjunction with said gravity generating units if not a sub-system of that.
Also can artificial gravity be 'aligned' on a starship operating inside a gravity well of a planet as to re-orientate such perpendicular to the natural force ?
