Terminal velocity is also a function of density, or rather drag-to-mass
ratio, and therefore subject to the square-cube law. A mouse can fall
farther than me without injury, because its TV is much lower than a
person's. An ant's TV is so low that it can fall from any height and not
get hurt at all. Just a litte fact to add nothing to the discussion. I'm
sick of lurking.
from the hub on a habitat would be roughly like being blown into the ground
by a strong wind.
