%N A353407 Decimal expansion of the gravitational force between two unit-edge-length unit-mass cubes whose centers are a unit distance apart, so they are in contact along one face, in units where the gravitational constant is G = 1.
%C A353407 The absolute value of the total gravitational attraction force between two identical homogeneous cubes, each with mass M and edge length s, whose centers are at distance s is c*G*M^2/s^2, where G is the gravitational constant (A070058) and c is this constant.
%C A353407 The calculation of the closed-form formula for this constant was done by Prof. Bengt Fornberg of the University of Colorado (Trefethen, 2011).
