LIFE IN ZERO G WITH STEVEN STRAIT: EPISODE 4 - A FLYING LABORATORY

In Episode 4 of Life In Zero G, Steven Strait continues his journey at the European Space Agency's parabolic flight facility in Bordeaux. In our latest installment we learn how there’s much more to microgravity than experiencing weightlessness. It’s an important way of advancing other areas of science, too. We also get a view inside the cockpit and learn how parabolic flight requires a very special brand of flying.
