Experience zero-gravity without going to space – WPVI-TV

It's the ultimate bucket list experience like no other. Take to the skies and float like an astronaut without launching to space.

It's a once in a lifetime commercial flight opportunity offered by the Zero Gravity Corporation.

The space entertainment and tourism company is making space adventure available to anyone at a reasonable price.

"Because having space is something that can be a commercial endeavor that everyone can enjoy," Cronise said. "Not just creating hero astronauts; not just the elite people that get to go, but actually everybody be able to go."

Space enthusiasts get to experience the free-falling ride inside G-Force One.

"It's a Boeing 727 that took 10-years to retrofit to do this," said Matt Gohd, CEO of Zero Gravity Corporation. "It's the only FAA-certified plane that can fly zero-gravity flights.

Similar to a cargo plane, G-Force One is laid out with a padded interior divided into spacious sections made just for free-floating.

"It's like watching Apollo 11. It's incredible," said Joshua Wexler from Van Nuys in Los Angeles.

After first experiencing ZERO-G with his son earlier in the year, Wexler returned, but this time with his daughter for her first space-like flight.

"To have this kind of experience with my dad is just a really special moment," said 16-year-old Bella Wexler. "It's just a father-daughter bonding moment," she added.

"As a kid growing up in the beginnings of the space age, to think that like 50 years ago, this would be something I could do is amazing," said Gohd.
