Less gravity means that the organisms present will adapt so that they have different structures. Having half the gravity will means that bones can be less dense so that light frames per size exist. A heart that is use to functioning in a higher gravity will find that the body is a bit larger that it is in the lower gravity. As a side effect the heart will beat to hard and blood pressure will increase the body will adapt a bit, however in one generation. The ones with hearts better adapted
Changes of the degree and type you're talking about do indeed happen, and have happened on Earth. They haven't prevented interbreeding yet - not even close.

Also, how many humans got transplanted and from were did the before race steal the land previously in the Gulf of Mexico and put it in a giant ship and steal it?
Huh? I have no idea what you're talking about.

Thats not true the machine just got powered by slaves and animals. And I recall seeing the Romans had lead/acid pottery batteries cant remember if they figured out why though. The Greeks had temple doors that only opened when the correct weight of sacrifice was on them. The whole barbarians take out Rome thing had more effect. The knowledge written down ended up in the hands of priests and the like or just elites for so long. The recent idea of giving the common man a shot at inventing things and educating the unwashed masses is the reason the curve spikes in the past 2-3 hundred years. The Renaissance was helpful for setting the basics its the whole centuries of knowledge hoarding called the Dark Ages that messed things up.
Well... no. The 'knowledge hoarding' practice was in place all across human society long before the fall of the Roman Empire, which, BTW, had mostly rotted from the inside out even before anybody came along to push the corpse over. And that's just in the west, leaving aside the Byzantine Empire, the Persians, the Islamic Caliphates, and anything and everything happening in China and India.
I'm taling about the fact that, for example, no one conceived of something like a McCormick reaper even though none of the parts of the horse-drawn type are out of the reach of your village blacksmith.
Ja, -n
