if you toss a coin in the air you are subjecting that coin to microgravity. When an experiment is in a NASA Glenn Research Center drop tower, the experiment is subjected to microgravity for about 2 or 5 seconds.
When experiments and/or people are flown on a parabolic-trajectory aircraft, they experience a microgravity environment also.
When astronauts, cosmonauts, and experiments are on the Int'l Space Station, they also experience a microgravity environment.
All three effects are due to a condition of free fall, where the only significant force upon the person or experiment is gravity. The only real difference between the three conditions is the horizontal velocity and altitude.

What doesn't have lots of friction?
Objects with smooth surfaces or lubrication between them tend to have less friction. In a vacuum or in microgravity environments, there is also less friction between objects.
When was Center for Advanced Engineering Environments created?
Center for Advanced Engineering Environments was created in 2001.
When was University of Washington College of Built Environments created?
University of Washington College of Built Environments was created in 1914.
What does microgravity have to do with jumping?
In microgravity environments like space, there is less gravitational force acting on the body, allowing astronauts to jump much higher and for longer durations compared to on Earth. This is because there is minimal resistance pulling them back down, resulting in the sensation of "floating" and increased mobility.
How would you sleep without gravity?
Without the force of gravity to hold us down, we would likely float around in our sleeping area. To sleep in microgravity environments, astronauts use sleeping bags that can be attached to walls or floors to keep them from drifting away. Additionally, they might use straps or Velcro to secure themselves in place.
