167:22:06 Scott: Well, in my left hand, I have a feather; in my right hand, a hammer. And I guess one of the reasons we got here today was because of a gentleman named Galileo, a long time ago, who made a rather significant discovery about falling objects in gravity fields. And we thought where would be a better place to confirm his findings than on the Moon. 167:22:28 Scott: And so we thought we'd try it here for you. The feather happens to be, appropriately, a falcon feather for our Falcon. And I'll drop the two of them here and, hopefully, they'll hit the ground at the same time. (Pause) [The hammer and feather fall side by side and hit the ground at virtually the same time.] 167:22:43 Scott: How about that! 167:22:45 Allen: How about that! (Applause in Houston) 167:22:46 Scott: Which proves that Mr. Galileo was correct in his findings. (Pause) MPEG (49 sec; 6.2Mb) (167:22:06) http://history.nasa.gov/alsj/a15/a15.clsout3.html
