The latest internet challenge is based on an old bogus claim. People were posting that “NASA” announced that on February 10th, you could stand up a broom because of the earth’s gravitational pull…or some planetary alignment. Didn’t take long for Twitter users to post their results.

Y’all…NASA didn’t say anything like that. Standing a broom? It’s simple physics. And you can do it any day of the year.
