Are astronauts really floating effortlessly in space, defying gravity like Hollywood portrays? In this video, we uncover the truth behind the term "zero gravity" and explain the more accurate concept of microgravity. Discover how astronauts appear to float as they free-fall in orbit around Earth, and learn about the unique challenges and experiences of daily life in microgravity. We also delve into how we simulate these conditions on Earth with parabolic flights and underwater training. Join us as we debunk myths and explore the reality of gravity - or the lack thereof - in space!
