What Happens to Space When You Jump?

Examples

1. If you're floating in space and jump like you do on Earth, you just float up instead of landing back down.
2. Imagine being inside a spaceship where everything is weightless, if you leap up, your body floats away from the floor.
3. Jumping into space feels like trying to bounce in air without any ground beneath you.
