      Hello
      No It is not possible, this is from the fact that there is no negative mass which can counteract the mass of the Earth. So as long as there is Earth, there is gravity. To get rid of the Earth gravity you need to be at a greater distance from the Earth!

      Gravity is related to mass, so unless you can make the earyh massless then no

      No, gravity is related to the mass of an object, and a force that exists between two objects with mass.
