At 10:47 eastern time Pluto will pass behind Jupiter which will cause a gravitational alignment that will reduce the Earth's gravity. If you jump into the air at the exact moment of the planetary alignment, you will experience a 'weightless,' floating sensation for up to 4 seconds.
 
Somehow I get the impression that you're quite an authority on experienceing a "floating sensation" /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/devilgrin.gif

Are you sure it's not Uranus that's aligning with Jupiter? /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/angel.gif
 
Maybe that's what is causing Mickey's problem... Uranus is acting up.

This thread has gone down the toilet quickly.
 
I took all my students out to the lunch area brick wall with sticks of chalk and told them this on April 1 about three or four years ago. I explained that they were to jump and make a mark on the wall with the chalk and write their name beside it, then I told them this line...at exactly 12:00 noon, they were to jump again and they would be able to make a mark at least 6in higher. (They could compare it to the original as "proof") Then, all of them had their names on the wall as evidence that I am the greatest April Fool's day prankster of themn all! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....
 
Dang! I missed it!I guess that I'll have to
wait a year to try this.

Actually Doug, you'll have to wait about 317 years for this
alignment to happen again...

Let us know how it turns out...
