    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.

    1999-F_Brauer-What Goes Up Must Come Down
    This paper is a wonderfully general analysis of the following, “It is natural to ask whether a particle propelled upwards takes longer to fall to earth from its maximum height than it takes to rise to this maximum height for frictional forces.
