Throw it and watch it fly

Launch a ball across a dark field. It travels slowly, so you can really watch it rise, slow at the top, and curve back down to land.

It flies and falls at once

The ball keeps moving forward, and gravity pulls it down the whole time. Blend the two and you get this smooth curve — a parabola. A 45° throw flies the farthest.

Three worlds

Earth — a brisk arc. Moon — weak pull, so the ball floats up high and drifts down slowly. Wind — a steady push bends the flight sideways.

Hit the target

In the game, a flag waits down the field. Set the angle and the power so the ball lands right on it. Or just play and watch the curves.

Play, then learn why

The ball lands and sits a moment — nothing slaps you. When you want to know why it flew like that, tap 🔬. The science comes only when you ask.
