Re: Wheel Confusion

The surface of the moon is dusty, from what I hear. The gravity is 1/6, which would generally make the friction 1/6. The only question is what is your baseline for friction on a dusty surface on Earth.

I don't think they really are aiming for literal accuracy here, the moon theme is just that, a theme.
