Affordable research in weightlessness is now available. For the first time, ZERO-G offers unprecedented access to space environments for advanced research at a price that will fit your budget.
ZERO-G has established the ZERO-G Weightless Lab which provides the much-needed opportunity for new technological advances in biomedical and pharmaceutical research, fluid and fundamental physics, materials science, aerospace engineering, space exploration hardware and human space habitation.
Already planning a suborbital or orbital scientific program? Previous research clients have reported that parabolic flight is a critical first step toward achieving their space research objectives. The ZERO-G Weightless Lab is available today as a way to conduct experiments or test equipment prior to spaceflight, to raise the probability that in space experiment will succeed or to remove risks of failure.
Available for qualifying experiments, ZERO-G encourages proposals from universities, corporations, government and individuals alike seeking to conduct serious investigations in Martian, Lunar, zero and hyper gravity environments.
Applying for the ZERO-G Weightless Lab
Your program begins when you submit a proposal using ZERO-G’s Research Program Guidelines and Proposal Package. The proposal will be reviewed by ZERO-G’s Research Staff and its airline partner, Amerijet International Cargo. Upon acceptance, ZERO-G will work with researchers to obtain proper FAA approvals for the experiments. Following this thorough preparation period, first-time and seasoned experimenters complete a two-day program that includes a test readiness review (TRR) on Day 1 and the ZERO-G Weightless Lab flight on Day 2.
ZERO-G Weightless Lab inclusions
ZERO-G is able to offer access to a proven platform and environment for experiments.
The ZERO-G Weightless Lab includes:
• ZERO-G Research staff assistance for planning, engineering, and review phases
• Test Readiness Review – Day 1
• Weightless Flight – 25 parabolas, 5 research/sponsor seats per section – Day 2
• Personal flight suit, flight bag, and in-flight socks
• Storage for take-off and landing: 15” L x 16” W x 21.5” H (25 lbs per section)
• 20’ L x 5’ W in-flight test area per section
• In-flight coach assistance
• HD video of flight
• Pre and post-flight refreshments with Re-gravitation Celebration
• Post-program assessment
For clients requiring substantial test area, additional parabolas or other services not provided as part of the ZERO-G Weightless Lab program, ZERO-G can work with you to design a program that meets your research needs. Please contact Michelle Peters to initiate your customized program.
