A ZERO-G Experience is the only one of its kind. When joining a ZERO-G Experience aboard G-FORCE ONE, you will encounter the only commercial opportunity on Earth for individuals to enjoy true weightlessness without going to space. The day of your ZERO-G Experience will last about five hours and includes, 12-15 parabolas, your own ZERO-G flight suit, ZERO-G merchandise, a Regravitation Celebration, certificate of weightless completion, photos and video of your unique experience. A ZERO-G Experience® is available at $8,200+ 5.2% tax per person.

“It was exhilarating. It was great to experience both lunar gravity and weightlessness again. I hope that everyone interested in adventure tourism and space will participate in this amazing opportunity.”
- Dr. Buzz Aldrin, Apollo 11 Astronaut

What to Expect:

• Check-In: When you arrive at the designated ZERO-G Training Facility you will check-in with your government issued picture identification. You will then be introduced to your Team Coach and escorted into the Orientation Room where you can enjoy a light breakfast before orientation begins.
• Pre-flight Orientation: A pre-flight video begins the orientation covering everything you need to know concerning your ZERO-G Experience. After the video you will be broken into teams of Gold, Silver or Blue where you will be able to meet your group and cover additional questions with your Coach.
• Security: After the orientation, all flyers and Coaches will proceed through security screening just like you would at an airport. Please note that carry-on items are limited and must fit in your pocket.
• Transportation: Once screening is complete, all flyers will proceed to the aircraft. Transportation to G-FORCE ONE will differ depending on the location of the flight.
• Travel to Fly Zone: Before boarding, a group picture will be taken in front of G-FORCE ONE. Once everyone is seated, a brief on-board safety demonstration will be given by the Flight Attendants before takeoff. Depending on the approved airspace, it will take about 30 minutes to reach appropriate altitude.
• The ZERO-G Experience: Once the okay is given to unbuckle, all flyers will head to the Gold, Silver or Blue Floating Zone. You are now minutes away from becoming weightless. 12-15 parabolas are flown for an approximate weightless time of eight minutes.
• Regravitation Celebration: After your weightless experience you and your fellow flyers will enjoy the Regravitation Celebration where the pre-flight photos and certificates are handed out and refreshments are provided.

We Also Charter Groups!

Since ZERO-G's launch in 2004, individuals, groups of family and friends and companies have all chartered ZERO-G for an exciting experience that stands out. The ZERO-G Experience builds memories that last. It is a unique way to express gratitude to important clients and partners or an amazing group activity for your friends and family. With this being a once in a lifetime experience, why not get married in weightlessness? Flights can be rewards, incentives, celebrations and even revenue mechanisms for charitable institutions.

Charter flights can accommodate up to 30 participants. Also available is an exclusive use section for up to 30 participants.

In addition to our current scheduled flights, clients who charter a flight can request the locations as long as it can accommodate a Boeing 727-200 aircraft. Additional costs may be associated with relocating G-FORCE ONE from its primary locations.

ZERO-G is a great educational tool. ZERO-G is actively developing programs and partnerships that provide educators, students, and parents with the excitement of a ZERO-G Weightless Experience while incorporating planned demonstrations and advanced research.

“Thank you, thank you, thank you! This was truly a once in a lifetime opportunity - better than any content taught in the college classroom in preparation for a career in science education.”
- Carrie Cate-Clements, Educator

How It Works!

Before starting a parabola, G-FORCE ONE flies level to the horizon at an altitude of 24,000 feet. The pilots then begin to pull up, gradually increasing the angle of the aircraft to about 45° to the horizon reaching an altitude of 34,000 feet. During this pull-up, passengers will feel the pull of 1.8 Gs. Next the plane is “pushed over” to create the zero gravity segment of the parabola. For the next 20-30 seconds everything in the plane is weightless. Next a gentle pull-out is started which allows the flyers to stabilize on the aircraft floor. This maneuver is repeated 12-15 times, each taking about ten miles of airspace to perform. See parabola video.

In addition to achieving zero gravity, G-FORCE ONE also flies a parabola designed to offer Lunar gravity (one sixth your weight) and Martian gravity (one third your weight). This is created by flying a larger arc over the top of the parabola.

G-FORCE ONE flies in a FAA designated airspace that is approximately 100 miles long and ten miles wide. Usually, three to five parabolas are flown consecutively with short periods of level flight between each set.

“It was amazing. The zero-g part was wonderful. I could have gone on and on. Space here I come.”
