One of the most suprising things we learn in Physics class is that the acceleration due to Earth's gravity is constant for any mass (9.81 m/s/s). Gallileo demonstrated it in 1589 by dropping objects of different mass from the Leaning Tower
Astronomer Points out what Gravity got Wrong
Don't hate Neil deGrasse Tyson for pointing out where multiple Oscar winning film Gravity departs from the physics. The American astronomer argues that he's a fan of the film and that its special effects got most
