most decadent westies speak of being in outer space as "zero gravity", which of course is a condition that does not exist anywhere but is especially inappropriate to use to describe anything we'd call an orbit

"free fall" is a much more germane term but is not well known outside of that song, and it occurred to me that most of the fans of that song have no context for the words outside of it
