      Good question! Once you get into space, floating is really easy, you just let go of whatever you’re holding onto and you’ll float! You float because normally on Earth you are held onto the ground by gravity. When you go really far away from Earth, the gravity gets less and less until eventually you get into ‘zero-gravity’ or ‘zero-G’ which is when gravity isn’t holding you down any more so you can just float around!
