"Zero G, and I feel fine, " Glenn called from orbit, paraphrasing himself from 36 years earlier.
Unidentified Man: Welcome to Zero G Aerospace, making space travel available to everyone.
And so, inside the elevator, the human party continues oblivious, the riders flirt and complain and mix zero-G cocktails, or chase bewildered zero-G leaf-cutter bees.
Mr. ERIC GORRELL (Zero G Aerospace): It doesn't really matter what it is to a lot of these people when you get the e-mails and read the e-mails.
Zero G Aerospace will lose money on its first load of business cards, but once the rocket proves itself, Gonser and Gorrell hope to become the kings of the space souvenir business.
Since the changes the body goes through in zero G are so similar to the ones it goes through as it ages, studying a weightless senior citizen is supposed to shed light on both processes.
It was a programme that included engineering familiarisation, medical, survival and robotics training as well as microgravity or "zero-g" flights and sessions in a giant pool practising spacewalking.
BBC: Major Tim Peake says he is not too old to go into space
Membership will make it much easier for British scientists to propose experiments and to get access to facilities like a zero-G plane, which generates short periods of weightlessness by flying a series of parabolas in the sky.
Keldysh recited a poem in Russian, Mstislav made a joke about Gogol, then we sealed up this weird stew with cheesecloth mesh, as we do the rest of the topsoil, to keep it from absconding in the zero-G.
Now Major Peake, as he waits to be assigned a space mission, is in an ongoing programme of spacesuit training, zero-g flights to "practice weightlessness" and 12-day stints 20m (65ft) under water to research "crew behaviour for long-duration missions".

Earth-orientated sciences in a zero-g environment will always be its priority, and with six individuals living permanently on the station the amount of astronaut time dedicated to experimentation has now been raised to something like 70 hours a week.
"I've experienced 11 days docked at the space station, 16 days in space on my last flight, so getting back to life in zero gravity, that is never boring, everything from putting on your clothes to brushing your teeth to working to transfer of hardware, all of its fun in zero-g, " Marshburn told NASA before the launch.
Roubini, like his colleague Ian Bremmer of the Eurasia Group, stressed the concept of a G-Zero world, where no global hegemon can elicit strong support to get policy enacted.
FORBES: Roubini On Steroids: Zombie Economy In A G-Zero World
In our emerging G-Zero world, with no single power able to set the agenda, the winners and losers of the next generation will be determined not by the rubrics of the moment but by how well and often they are able to pivot.
The simple r-g assumption is one of the most important in debt dynamics: an r-g of greater than zero (when interest rates are greater than GDP growth) means that the debt stock increases over time.
Drivers in 1990 cars would fight crushing G-forces as they lurched from zero to 125 mph and back to zero in less than seven seconds.
WSJ: Ayrton Senna | Aggression With Lucidity | By Richard B. Woodward
Only Japan has a positive real interest rate among the G-7 and that rate is barely above zero.
FORBES: Central Bank Appetite And The Monetary Case For $10,000 Gold
As of right now, we have zero solid evidence that Apple is even producing a tablet, let alone ready to drop one for a G come March.
