Secondary Experimentation

Secondary Experimentation

 

I’ll admit it, I’m a microgravity addict. Nothing describes the experience until you actually do it. True weightlessness is even better than floating in the ocean. Part of the project was to see how your body reacts in microgravity. My body loved it. Granted, I did get sick, once, and at the end of the trip, but even that was the coolest experiment! Imagine throwing up with ease. Yep, I said it, throwing up in microgravity was awesome. No effort needed, just let physics completely take over. You can’t even imagine what that feels like.

Aside from the sick part, the piece about just letting physics taking over your body allowed me was probably the most significant part of the experiment. It’s probably one of the only times I have ever really “let go”. At least, it felt that way.
