What If We Lost Gravity for 5 Seconds?

Unless you're an astronaut, you probably don't spend a lot of time thinking about gravity. We all take gravity for granted, and it would be hard not to! Aside from a tiny sliver of the world's population, most humans don't know a life without gravity. From the Universe to our Solar System, to each planet, all the way down to our own bodies, gravity holds everything together. But since we tend to see gravity as a given, it's hard for us to imagine just how helpless we'd be without it... until it's actually gone.
