Frisbee on the Moon
Just for fun:
A few years ago, a friend posed the question, “Would a Frisbee fly on the Moon?”
My immediate reaction was, “Of course not. Without a substantial atmosphere for lift, it can't really fly, and would just tumble, and fall like a rock. Almost as quickly, it dawned on me, that the Frisbee was 'spin stabilized', and while it couldn't benefit from lift in a near vacuum, it also would suffer no drag.
If tossed well, I think it might just fly straight as an arrow.
Other Lunar sports are fun to think about.
In a 1/6 G shirtsleeve environment, (Inside a big Hab module) Judo would be very interesting.
In a really BIG Hab module, gymnastics would be pretty amazing.
