Description: Uses animation and live photography to show the importance of gravity, the effects of gravity on various bodies on earth, and the law of gravity as formulated by Issac Newton. Pictures common things dependent upon the forces of gravity, and demonstrates that gravity operates not only between the earth and objects on it, but between the objects themselves. A boy's imaginary trip to the moon and to Jupiter shows that gravitational attraction is dependent on mass and distance. The effect of lack of gravity is shown by placing the boy in a weightless condition., Uses animation and live photography to show the importance of gravity, the effects of gravity on various bodies on earth, and the law of gravity as formulated by Issac Newton.
