Imagine falling for 12 whole minutes. Not on Earth, but on Miranda, an icy moon of Uranus. This tiny world is home to Verona Rupes, a cliff possibly 20 kilometers tall, possibly the tallest known in the solar system! With no atmosphere to slow you down, a fall here means pure acceleration through the void. Still, gravity is less.
