Summary
| Description |
English: In this real-time animation of a 50-meter diameter rotating space-station, bouncy red "balls" are released from two different locations: the zero-gee point on the rotation-axis, and from 4.74 meters "above" the one-gee perimeter.
The dashed blue lines support "drop platforms" associated with the pentagonal trajectory of the dropped ball, which "falls behind" the drop platform itself (in the anti-spinward or clockwise direction) by about one-sixth of a revolution between (green-circle) drop events. |
