  Wrong. The earth orbits the space station. Ignore the epicyclic motion of other nearby bodies.

    Ah, good old relativity. Btw where did you learn about epicycles?

  That’s what microgravity means.

    I believe microgravity refers things like walking on the moon. Where the moon’s pull on you is far less than than if you were on earth

        Oh, seems I’m wrong, well that’s a bit incongruent if you ask me. Since the force of gravity from earlier isn’t that much lower in low earth orbit :/
