Re: Vomit Comet

i propose you find out if mating mammals care if there's gravity


actually on I'd seriously try is take samples of known alloys, melt them with thermite in 0g and then see how they cool in brine, air, oil or water - I bet they crystallize differently


yes I envy DYT sad

The core joke of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is that of course no civilization would develop personal computers with instant remote database recovery, and then waste this technology to find good drinks.

It was "Free Convection Correlation in Reduced Gravity", and it was the 19th he flew on.

Re: Vomit Comet

Yeah I guess it was a different flight then, that's weird because NASA has one flight week blocked off, did he do it with another program?

Yup, astronautical engineering just got my BS, going for MS now.

Yell: You'd probably find this entertaining: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TncbfacJXkc . No animals allowed on the experiments. For my rockets I can have invertebrates, and I think fish?

And yeah it was so cool, I want to go again someday but I think I'm going to save the money for my space trip.

Re: Vomit Comet

Ah it was with Zero G on the GForce1. Didn't realise there were private companies doing it :0.

Re: Vomit Comet

Jet Blue has been flying commercial passengers through zero G since...what year did Ayeisha die again?
