Galileo said that objects will drop to the ground at the same speed, no matter their weight. A hammer and a feather should land at the same time. However, objects on earth are affected by air resistance, causing the feather to float around. In July 1971, Apollo 15 astronaut David Scott put Galileo's theory of gravitational pull to the test on the moon.

That Galileo.....what a guy !
That was a neat little demo.
cool! Funny the church at the time probably wanted him burned on the stake for such a ridiculous ides.
It would have been a perfect theory if mankind had ACTUALLY LANDED on the moon. I don't believe they did though.
Ahhh.....a follower of the Capricorn One theory. I wonder too.
you dont think they landed on the moon???
I don't think I feel strongly that they DIDN'T.......but I think there were plenty of good reasons for saying that they DID. (whether they did or not)
