Ok, a physicist should have flamed me: if
the Mass has one-digit precision, then the
radius can't have more than that. So, R = 0.6 m

PS: but it's Spock's _human_ side that acts whenever
he gives some approximation with 10 digits. He's
making fun of his Vulcan nature. Tuvok is much more
Vulcano, and he *never* gives those impossible
approximations.
