This video demonstrates how the eye tracks motion in such a way that determining whether an object is accelerating is very difficult. So, we need another way to measure motion.

This video demonstrates how a theory cannot be proved.  Theories at best allow observations to be explained at that time, but there may be other explanations still to be discovered. The scientific method is rigorous in attempting to disprove a theory. Only when we fail to disprove our theories do we say we have...
