There are a couple of problems with the post, according to NASA. First, NASA said it has not issued any statement regarding a reduction in gravity on Jan. 4.
"These rumors are false and the image of a NASA tweet circulating is a doctored image," NASA spokesperson told AL.com.
And then, because they are pretty cool, they offered this explanation: Microgravity exists only off Earth. The crews aboard the International Space Station live and work in microgravity, where they conduct science experiments that take advantage of this unique environment aboard the orbiting laboratory. Temporary microgravity can be created using aircraft flying in parabolic arcs."
