BBC & Nasa’s Science Experiment With a Bowling Ball and Feathers is Amazing

Were you like me, and when we started talking about gravity in school, you tried that trick with a bowling ball and a feather. How they were supposed to fall at the same speed. Of course it didn't work because the feathers had too much air resistance. Then the teacher would say that if you dropped them in a room without air then they would drop at the same rate. (I call Bullsh#t). Turns out I called it wrong.

I have a tendency to enjoy things that are a bit beyond me. For example, I enjoy MMA, because it's something I can't do. I enjoy cooking shows, because I can't cook. If you talk to me about science, I'll be asleep in minutes, but if you talk to me about it while showing me what you're talking about, not only will I be awake, I'll be fascinated. Well Brian Cox of the visited NASA’s Space Power Facility in Ohio and now I'm fascinated.
