Orbits and Microgravity

Due to the unusually cold weather, Desert View started late this morning. Therefore periods are only 35 minutes each, so I am postponing our discussion of tides and black holes and instead we are discussing why astronauts seem to be "weightless" when in orbit.

Also, homework! For everyone: HW: Unit 8 Practice

Additional for Honors: HW: Banked Curves
And a totally awesome online tutorial to help you with that homework can be found here.
