This simulator is designed to prepare you for the forces of acceleration experienced by astronauts during launch, the times the force of Earth’s gravity.
Part of astronaut training is learning how to sleep, eat and work in space. This session answers commonly asked questions about how astronauts perform everyday activities in microgravity.
This simulator simulates the five degrees of freedom, forward, backward, side-to-side, roll, pitch and yaw. Performing these movements simulate what it would be like to work in the frictionless environment of space during an EVA. They also demonstrate Newton’s Third Law of Motion.
This exciting simulator launches the you 140 feet in 2.5 seconds allowing you to feel four times the force of Earth’s gravity and 2-3 seconds of freefall.
Find out how it would feel to walk on the moon, where there is only one sixth of the Earth’s gravity, in this simulator inspired by the Apollo program.
