Modified Boeing 727 lets you experience zero gravity

Have you ever wanted to experience what it’s like being an astronaut without going to space and without spending millions? There’s a way! 

You can climb aboard G Force One, a modified Boeing 727 operated by Zero-G. For $7,500 per person, the company takes you to dedicated airspace at an altitude you’d fly at on any other passenger plane. Once airborne, you fly through 15 parabolas — a series of ascents and descents that resembles a wave. At the crest of each parabola, you experience about 20 seconds of weightlessness or near weightlessness. 

You float about the modified cabin. Somersaults and one-handed push-ups become effortless in zero gravity.

According to the company’s CEO, the flights have become increasingly popular since Richard Branson and Jeff Bezos themselves experienced weightlessness.
