Any two subjects under vacuum will fall at the same rate

You know how to end this experiment, but still before the inspection kontsa

Many of our readers probably know that any two objects in a vacuum would fall at the same speed. Maybe someone even saw a demonstration of this experience personally. But surely you have not yet seen as a classic experiment is replicated in the largest vacuum chamber in the world. If so, look.



Recently, physicist Brian Cox visited the vacuum chamber «Space Power Facility» NASA in the US state of Ohio, to test it. Colossal aluminum construction is 30, 5 m in diameter and 37 to 2 m in height, and its volume - 22653 cubic meters.



Most impressive in the video is not even that pen and a heavy bowling ball fall at the same speed, and the reaction Cox and engineers. They knew how to end experience and what to expect. Many of them have already seen such an experiment on a smaller scale. But watching the pen and ball with fall from a great height, the scientists smiling and laughing like children. And it's awesome.
