The Return of Microgravity to
SFA
Would you like to experience near zero gravity in a KC135
aircraft? If so, then some SPS students could use your help. Once again
Dr. Friedfeld is putting together a team of students to conduct microgravity
research. He needs the names of anyone interested by Thursday of this
week. (I only wish that faculty members could fly for free too!)
It doesn't matter if you are a
first semester freshman or a graduate student. Students are needed for the
flight crew and ground crew. The flight will take place next summer but
the names of interested students are needed this week. If you are
interested in flying experiments in the KC-135 aircraft, then please contact Dr.
Friedfeld (rfriedfeld@sfasu.edu) or me (astro@sfasu.edu).
Here are SFA Students Steve Parker and Greg Rodgers in the KC-135
Aircraft...the weightless wonder. Big Movie:

Here's actor Tom Hanks in the KC-135 filming a part of Apollo 13 the
movie...behind the scenes. Another Big Movie:
