so..."being in orbit" is actually being in perpetual free fall?

It’s always amazing to see grown ups learning things that teachers tried to explain in school.

What's that? If the earth is dragging the ISS with gravity, how are they missing anything?

Understang Earth's gravity extends far into space. The moon is locked in Earth's gravity 240,000 miles away.

Why does it feel that all what he said is a lot of bs?

Gotta go fast enough sideways to miss the earth as you fall back down. That's an orbit.

I watched the whole video, watched again and again, then I just understood that I still didn't understand what he said.

i love that he didnt say “theyre in constant freefall” but instead chose to explain whats happening using non-academic language so the lesson is more easily digestible ☺️

I remember as a little kid reading Robert Heinlein books and he accurately called it “free fall” instead of “zero G”. Made me think hard as a 10 year old. 😂

The moon is also falling towards the earth and constantly missing. The earth is constantly falling into the sun and missing.

Same analogy that walking is actually a controlled fall...

The zero g effect is from the falling, not the lack of the gravity
