Corrected entry: When Neil Armstrong is walking on the moon, he stops to drop the bracelet of his daughter. This small, plastic bracelet simply falls to the ground. With no gravity, it should have floated away.

Correction: There is gravity on the moon, albeit very much less than Earth. Moon's gravity is about one sixth of that of Earth so the bracelet will actually fall to the ground at the respective velocity.

Correction: The moon has gravity - that's how he's walking around! There's just lower gravity than on earth. I mean...there's videos on youtube of astronauts on the moon dropping stuff, falling over, etc.
