  2. Weightlessness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weightlessness

    Weightlessness is the complete or near-complete absence of the sensation of weight, i.e., zero apparent weight. It is also termed zero g-force, or zero-g (named after the g-force) [1] or, incorrectly, zero gravity. Microgravity environment is more or less synonymous in its effects, with the recognition that g-forces are never exactly zero.

  3. Reduced-gravity aircraft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced-gravity_aircraft

    In late 2004, the Zero Gravity Corporation became the first company in the United States to offer zero-g flights to the general public, using Boeing 727 jets. Each flight consists of around 15 parabolas, including simulations of the gravity levels of the Moon and Mars, as well as complete weightlessness. [26]

  4. Zero Gravity Research Facility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_Gravity_Research_Facility

    The Zero Gravity Research Facility was built in 1966 as part of NASA's Centaur upper-stage rocket development program. In order to ensure proper firing and functioning of upper-stage rockets, NASA needed to understand the behavior of fluids (importantly, the liquid gases fueling the rockets), in the reduced gravity where they would fire.

    Zero Gravity "G-FORCE ONE" aircraft People in the reduced-gravity aircraft. As of August 2022, the price of a flight for a single passenger starts at US$8,200. [12] The unique Weightless Weddings Experience is also included in the list of services [13] Noah and Erin Fulmor were the first couple to get married in weightlessness. [14]

  6. Proper acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proper_acceleration

    This state is also known as "zero gravity" ("zero-g") or "free-fall," and it produces a sensation of weightlessness. Proper acceleration reduces to coordinate acceleration in an inertial coordinate system in flat spacetime (i.e. in the absence of gravity), provided the magnitude of the object's proper-velocity [ 3 ] (momentum per unit mass) is ...

  9. Neutral buoyancy simulation as a training aid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutral_buoyancy...

    Reduced-gravity aircraft training avoids neutral-buoyancy training's drag problem (trainees are surrounded by air rather than water), but instead faces a severe time limitation: periods of sustained weightlessness are limited to around 25 seconds, interspersed with periods of acceleration of around 2 g as the aircraft pulls out of its dive and ...
