rahul_rudani Posted March 10, 2003 Posted March 10, 2003 - Is there a machine on earth that can completely fake the effects of zero gravity? Can a human enter? :uhh:
greg1917 Posted March 10, 2003 Posted March 10, 2003 Get in a plane. Lose altitude fast enough and for a few minutes ull undergo what could be described as weightlessness - ure falling at the same speed as the plane so u float around. This is how scenes in Apollo 13 were filmed. As for a machine that can 'fake' zero gravity, No.
rahul_rudani Posted March 10, 2003 Author Posted March 10, 2003 oh yeah, that would be like free-falling for 30 seconds.
MajinVegeta Posted March 10, 2003 Posted March 10, 2003 How about jumping a trampoline!! You'll stay in the air for a few seconds. It'll be just like in space. Golly by gosh! Ain't it a groovy idea? :help: :bravo: :cool2: sky diving?:owned: :uhh: :spam:
blike Posted March 11, 2003 Posted March 11, 2003 Skydiving would feel like weightlessness, except for the air blasting all over you...

PogoC7 Posted March 11, 2003 Posted March 11, 2003 Swimming in Water. Compared to the plane example. Water is the closest thing to weightlessness on Earth, plus easier to do (It's for everyone!!!). Unless you suffer from Aquagenous urticaria, then you better have some money for a 0g plane trip or write to a charity.
