Hammer Versus Feather on the Moon

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

On the Moon, a hammer and a feather fall at the same rate, as demonstrated by Apollo 15 astronaut David Scott. Without air resistance, all objects accelerate identically due to gravity, a principle first explored by Galileo. This experiment confirms that differences in fall times on Earth are due to air resistance, not differences in gravitational pull on mass.
