Imagine if Earth’s gravity suddenly turned off, like a light switch. You’d float up into the air like a balloon! Everything on Earth, from trees to cars, would float too. If this happened for good, we wouldn’t be able to stand or walk anymore. We'd all become space travelers without even leaving our planet.
Examples
- You float up like you're on a trampoline
- Your dog floats off the floor
- You can't drink your juice, it just floats out of the cup
