While there is a general increase in footprint width as a function of catapult distance seen across the three gravity levels (A)–(C), we have not observed an obvious trend of footprint as a function of gravity, as shown in (D). (The box-and-whisker plot shows the middle 50% of data (i.e., the interquartile range from the 25th–75th percentiles), the whiskers show the data range less the outliers, and the furthest outliers are shown in red +’s. The red lines and black dots denote the median and mean of each dataset, respectively. The x-axis is semiquantitative; horizontal data spread within a box is only to enhance readability and does not indicate a variation in x-axis value).
