Gravity is a force that pulls you down to the centre of a planet. If it was zero gravity you wouldn't be pulled down. Earth is the only planet that has gravity that's why you "float" in space. I hope this has helped.

They are in a low gravity environment, but it's not zero gravity. The Moon's surface gravity is about a sixth of the Earth's. That's enough to keep Moon buggies in place.


How little gravity would it take until you floated up and away like a helium balloon?

No matter how little gravity, as long as it is still positive, you would not float. For that, you would have to have less density than the air. With zero gravity, both we and the air would float away into space.

How was the zero gravity pen originally used in space?

The zero gravity pen was originally used in space so astronauts wouldn't have to find a pen for example if the zero gravity pen floats then the astronauts would be able to see where a pen is because if the pen did not float then if one of the astronauts needed to write something down they would have to write.
