Re: Physics Videos

One of my graduates, who is now teaching in a secondary school, recently
asked where to find a videotape version of the footage of Galileo's experiment
done on the moon -- the dropping of the hammer and some other object.

Can anyone tell me which collection of videos has this segment on it?

I believe the hammer and feather on the moon video is available on the Physics
Cinema Classics video disc set. Available from Ztek Co.
P.O. Box 11768
Lexington, KY 40577-1768
800-247-1603

The price in the 1998-99 AAPT catalog is:
$984 AAPT Members
$1199 Non members

My but the price for somethings can seem rediculous, especially when you consider
that Ztek didn't invest in the development of the disc set!
