Is this possible?

>>9157504
Only it's still on table

>>9157504

Yes it is possible, physical laws are probabilistic and there is a non-zero chance that every atom in the ball will simultaneously move upwards despite gravity.

>>9157504
Yes. If the ball has neutral buoyancy it will stay still. If it has negative buoyancy it will rise.

>>9157504
I feel like the word "dropped" kinda renders your question meaningless.

>>9157504
Yes, just put it in orbit.

Yeah fill the ball with helium

no, see >>9157647

there is no cardinal down, because a bird cant be a direction

i'm too retarded to answer such a question

>>9157504
some astronomical object with an incredible gravitational pull could perhaps approach or pass by the earth and reach a critical point where, before enough time has elapsed for the ball to reach the ground, it starts heading in the direction of said object and therefore the ball never touches the ground

Sure. It could like be in one of those wind tunnels. Or maybe there was a magnet inside it. Or maybe it's not particularly close to anything massive. Or maybe there's a massive amount of heat energy that burns it up and makes it stop being "a ball" by the time it hits the ground.

Lots of reasons.
