Being Weightless

Teachers Describe What It Is Like To Be Weightless (Video)

"On 2 October 2009 a group of teachers from Washington DC, Virginia, and Maryland participated in Northrop Grumman's "Weightless Flights of Discovery" program. This experience involves flying a series of parabolas aboard Zero Gravity Corp's G Force One jet during which you experience periods of weightlessness. After they returned to Earth, SpaceRef/OnOrbit caught up with two of the teachers, Catherine Bloedorn from Hammond High School in Columbia, Maryland and Jane Carter from Castlewood High School in Castlewood, Virginia and asked them to describe their weightless experience."
