The eternal battle between physics students and Newton's First Law! In the vacuum of space, with no air resistance or significant gravitational fields nearby, that rock you throw is basically signing up for an eternal road trip. It'll keep moving with constant velocity until something stops it—which in the vastness of space could be... never? The bell curve shows the classic intelligence distribution: the average folks (middle) correctly understand it keeps going forever, while the two extremes hilariously think it eventually stops. Newton is somewhere in the afterlife facepalming so hard right now.
