Description: Explores the concept of uniform motion through the use of a moving jet aircraft, a sports car, roller skates, a rocket, and a human cannonball. Explains that the natural way for an object to move is with uniform motion. Shows friction caused by rough and smooth surfaces before and after their lubrication by oil and air. Concludes showing a rocket in space relatively free from gravity's pull as it continues to travel with uniform motion for millions of miles.
