Second Flight Update


Second day flyers board the G-Force One microgravity aircraft.

Today our second group of flyers (Isa, Brad, and Dr. Crosby) took off in G-Force One, but had to return due to turbulence. We hope to fly tomorrow afternoon.

For the second flight, we will be using two new lunar simulants. These dust simulants are more cohesive (stick together more) than the other simulants, so we expect to see very different results... a higher angle of repose.
