Comment on Drawn to Earth

That was a fantastic clip.

It's such a mind shift to think of falling in the context of space. The word - "falling" - feels so earthly. It implies "up" and "down" - on earth, you "fall down."

In space you could fall across, up, over, etc. The reference point to which direction you fall is your own body instead of the body that's pulling you.
