This may seem weird, but have you thought about what would happen if there were no gravity one day? Would we all just start flying toward the sky and space? I sometimes fear that something tragic like this might happen and kill us all while we are in the middle of debates over immigration and fuel consumption. Has anybody else thought about this?

We would die within about 3 minutes or less as our atmosphere instantly flew out into space. The sun would almost instantly explode outwards as well and cease to burn within minutes or so.
No I don't think about this b/c the odds of the 14 billion year old sun law of gravity stopping in YOUR lifetime are so astronomically small as to warrant no attention whatsoever.

Well, since our cellular structure appears to rely on electromagnetic forces, we would instantly dissolve into nothing. poof the whole universe would be gone just like that.
The big empty whuff of everything becoming nothing and no one or no thing around to even notice it.
No reason to fear it because you wouldn't even know it had happened.
No I never thought about this but I have wondered what it would be like if one day we all went blind at the same instant.
Now that's scary!

I love how peoples brains work. I've never wondered a question like this, but i wonder about many odd things.
I have no idea what would happen.

I think that we have all thought about it at least once in our life time but I do not think that this is going to happen any time soon.
The fuel is going to disappear sooner so it is better to think about more realistic problems.

Wont ever happen in your lifetime.
If it did, I'd spend the rest of my life in my house floating around with some friends, throwing cherios at eachother and eating them from across the room. And velcro would be the new black.

If gravity stopped then we will all suffer from muscular dystrophy.

You like to worry yourself, I think.
If gravity stopped, then it will likely be the planet will stop rotating. Without the rotation, there would be no centrifugal force to propel you into space.

All electrons won't orbit their nucleus, and atoms wouldn't be attracted to one another.. So your whole body will fly apart nearly instantly..

no more tides, for one thing....the results would be far reaching and deviastating....quite probably the end of the world as we know it....
