2017-CW_Groetsch-Hammer and Feather - Some Calculus of Mass and Fall Time
Does a heavy object fall faster than a lighter one? In 1971 NASA astronaut Dave Scott, Commander of the Apollo 15 lunar mission, used a hammer and a falcon feather on the surface of the moon to give a dramatic illustration that this is not so.

2000-deOlivera-Delfino-Costa-Leite-Pinhole Water Flow From Cylindrical Bottles
