I’m in a zero gravity plane. It looks like I’m floating but I’m actually freefalling - this plane is hurtling towards the ground in a 42 degree nosedive! The whole flight is split up into 3 phases: First the plane pitches up to 50 degrees, speeding up steeply for 20 seconds along this path. During this part you feel squished to the floor… “hypergravity”. Until finally, when you reach the right spot, the plane dramatically slows down and basically throws you along the perfect path… And as you’re falling along this arc, the plane is carefully keeping itself perfectly around you. This is where you feel “weightless”... If you want to see what happens inside, subscribe! #gravity #science #tech #zerogravity #zerog
