BBtv online: http://tv.boingboing.net. In today's episode of Boing Boing tv, we float around in zero gravity. With me on this Zero-G weightless flight are Intel Chairman Craig Barrett; my friend Sean Bonner from metblogs; and a bunch of science teachers from grade schools and high schools throughout the United States who were on board to conduct microgravity experiments for the kids back home. As you watch, keep an eye out for the floating lego robot, a flying pig, and the barfing guy who is totally barfing for reals -- the rest of us did not, btw, I don't get sick in space.What you see in this episode is what it feels like, guys, and it feels awesome. -- Xeni Jardin.

you understand this is a private company flying private citizens for fun?

wonder what a space porno would look like.

What gets me is that so called scientists are doing all kinds of experiments on these flights, claiming that those are zero-gravity experiments, when in reality they are just experiments with inertia 8oP

Like 4000 dollars. More fun to just something real high to jump off of into water, its free, and you still get to flail around in the air

that looked like it was about 1/2 to 1/3 gravity. freefall from space can get near zero. but as previous staters. there is no such thing as zero gravity. just really close to it.

that one is not even mikro gravity, and for sure not zero gravity |
