As such, a ball would take 13.8 seconds to drop to the surface of the ringed gas giant!
Ultimately it is the density of an object, rather than its mass, that determines the speed at which a ball falls to its surface.As the animation indicates, ball games are likely to be particularly challenging on the sun, as items in free-fall travel at a staggering 274 meters (0.17 miles) per second on our star, taking just 2.7 seconds to drop to the surface from a height of one kilometer (0.6 miles) (assuming they don’t become vaporized).
