In reality, the motor end should hit first, since free-falling objects usually rotate in such a way that the heaviest part is positioned at the bottom. The atmosphere could influence and modify this behaviour on other celestial bodies, but the Moon does not have it.

The atmosphere could influence and modify this behaviour on other celestial bodies, but the Moon does not have it. Interesting. How does that happen without atmosphere? I thought the atmosphere is what creates this effect in the first place.
