erdnarob 1 #48 September 8, 2012 When being in orbit around the Earth, you are still experiencing a good percentage (more than 80% at altitude of 400 km) of the Earth gravity and therefore the related centripetal acceleration, this why you are turning or orbiting. However, as you "fall" at the same rate than the vessel (shuttle or ISS...) you just seem to be at 0 G with respect to the vessel. Just a physics precision. Negative Gs or Neggies is the force generated by a dowward acceleration. When a pilot dives his airplane, he can accelerate faster than the acceleration of the gravity. He can get what we call the "red veil" due to too much blood trying to get upward mainly in his head. Anti Gs coveralls prevent that problem but he helps by contracting neck muscles to keep the blood down as much as possible.Learn from others mistakes, you will never live long enough to make them all.

Beerlight 0 #49 September 10, 2012 I flew on the Vomit Comet (aka Zero G Corps B727) two weeks ago. Good times....for most At the beginning of the parabola, I'd say a bit of negative but it transitioned to 0.00G. We just hung out in the middle of the plane. Negative G (he pushed a bit hard over the top and we all sailed to the ceiling) Positive G: After 60 parabolas with subsequent 1.8 G pullouts, we were all ready to get out.
