not momentarily! all the days of our lives
Alas, it keeps pulling me back down - though I'll keep trying.
it would be a nucance if I didn't think of it as the Earth Hugging Us
Gravity of Earth - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_of_EarthThe gravity of Earth, which is denoted by g, refers to the acceleration that is imparted to objects ... The nominal "average" value at Earth's surface, known as standard gravity is, by definition, 9.80665 m/s2. This quantity is denoted variously as gn, ge (though this sometimes means the normal equatorial value on Earth, 9.78033 ..
I recall doing some experiment at school wherein we calculated the gravitational force at our particular geographical location and we came out close to the average.
I cannot recall how we conducted the experiment and am baffled as to how we did it?
Never mind, as long as we are kept glued to the planet I am happy.
