Editor's notes on: Theory of Falling Bodies, by Lloyd B. Zirbes

This is a reconstruction of the original Project Stardust book that Lloyd printed and distributed. It took many years to compile everything you find here. Much of it was lost. But through the work of those below it has been restored. If you are in possession of more of Lloyd's writings and research, please add them here (via a github pull request)

Errors

If you find any errors, please first check the original scanned version and compare. Then let us know about the error.
