Gravity Blackout Myth Debunked | Cincinnati News

A viral internet theory claims Earth will lose gravity on August 12, 2026, sparking panic and millions of views across social media. The rumor, dubbed “Project Anchor,” alleges a seven-second gravitational blackout tied to a fake NASA leak and a solar eclipse. But NASA firmly denies any such program exists — gravity is rooted in Earth’s mass and can’t vanish, even during an eclipse. Scientists confirm that if gravity vanished, it would cause global chaos, but stress this is purely fictional with no scientific basis. Don’t panic — no gravity blackout, no secret warnings, just misinformation. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
