Have you ever wondered why the Earth doesn't fall down? In this video, we break down the science behind why our planet stays in orbit around the Sun without crashing into it. Learn how Earth's constant fall and sideways momentum create a stable path, balancing gravity and momentum to keep our planet in check. We discuss Newton's famous cannonball thought experiment and how it explains the concept of falling and missing.
Discover how Earth's tilt and orbital path cause the changing seasons we experience each year. We also touch on how other planets and objects in our solar system follow similar stable orbits. Additionally, find out why we don't feel the Earth's constant falling motion and what it means for us as we journey through space. This video is perfect for anyone curious about the harmony of our solar system and the forces that sustain our planet's journey around the Sun.
