I'm Falling and I'm Okay with that

@zemoxian: "A sphere with infinite radius would look exactly like a plane. You wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. Actually, in a branch of mathematics called conformal geometric algebra, I think planes are actually defined as infinite spheres, IIRC."

Me: "Bingo. If that's the mathematical instructions given to the brain, the moon would have a parallel falling vector to the surface of the earth and yet would be perceived to orbit in a curved path."

@zemoxian: "When you stand on the ground, the force you feel on your feet is the ground pushing you off your geodesic path through space. You might think you’re standing still but you’re actually being accelerated upward to keep that stationary position."

Me: "I agree. That's why F=ma claims a free-falling body is at its natural state (no need to explain its fall to an outside force)."
