Currently we can see a new challenge that surprises everyone who performs it. According to a Twitter user, NASA would have confirmed that Monday was the only day on which the gravitational attraction was so strong that even the brooms could be kept standing. The user herself, tested this affirmation of the famous agency and recorded a video where you can see how her broom was standing.

The fact that NASA had confirmed this curious event is not entirely true, since there is no evidence or evidence that they said it. However, the fact of being able to keep the broom standing is so impressive that more and more people want to try it.

Following the popularity of this challenge, astronaut Alvin Drew and scientist Sarah Noble recorded a video for NASA explaining the reasons why this occurs. The first thing they wanted to correct is that this phenomenon is simply due to physics, in addition to the fact that there is no specific day to achieve it, but that it can be achieved any day of the year.
