In 1960, Richard M. Sutton wrote a paper describing a simple experiment: "If a mass slides down an inclined plane and gets launched with angle \(\alpha\), the range doesn't depend on g (acceleration due to gravity) - it's the same on 🌏 Earth or Mars." 🔗 https://aapt.scitation.org/doi/10.1119/1.1936008
