Devotee: How long would the planets float if it was put in the hands of a scientist?
Prabhupāda: Hm?
Devotee: If they were in charge of enforcing the law of floating the planets...
Prabhupāda: Let them do that. See. That was done by Hiraṇyākṣa. He brought down the planet, in the ocean, but Kṛṣṇa again rescued.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes, and killed him.
Prabhupāda: And killed him.
