When we were little some of always wish we could have super powers, some have superhero idol, well I have always loved The DC character called superman. Well I have always wondered why is it that superman can fly on earth, but not on Krypton. Well thank God for science superman character ability to fly on earth can be proved using elementary physics.

Why does superman fly on earth?

Superman

The Science behind superman ability to fly on earth has to do with Gravity, mass and acceleration due to gravity. Every planet has it acceleration due to gravity which depends on the mass and weight of the planet.

Acceleration due to gravity of earth

Well superman came from a planet which has more mass than the mass of the earth and also the acceleration due to gravity on planet Krypton is more than that of earth, and more mass means more gravitational pull. That is a person who was born on Planet Krypton will be able to float or glide if he is taken to another planet which has less mass on it. The simple explanation has can be seen when astronaut visit the moon ,they can float due to the acceleration due to gravity of the moon being less than that of earth.

The ability of superman to fly on earth is actually real. So not everything we see in film are not scientific proven.

Science is life

Be curious and ask questions!!!

Where in the comics did it say planet krypton had greater mass and acceleration???

Never really read all the comics, but that is the reason actually, from the movie son of Krypton they said little about the planet.

It's nice as it is, makes it more understandable for those with a weak physics background

It a symbol of freedom. The world is filled with hatred, tribalism, napotism, having a name makes it easy for people to classify you under a given thing. But when u have no name, no definite identify just like a ghost you are free.
