Zero gravity flights
Let go of gravity. Hold on to the moment.
Explore the sensation of floating aboard Novespace's Airbus A310 Zero G in Europe. The Air Zero G public discovery programme uses parabolic aircraft manoeuvres to create short periods of weightlessness, without travelling into space.
Discuss this experienceAn experience unlike ordinary flight
The Airbus A310 Zero G follows a series of controlled parabolic arcs, creating reduced-gravity phases in its prepared cabin. Novespace operates the aircraft for both public discovery flights and scientific research, including ESA campaigns. The public experience is distinct from a scientific research campaign.

A first step, not a prerequisite
Weightless flight can be a memorable experience in its own right. It can also introduce some of the sensations associated with space travel, but it is not a spaceflight and does not qualify you for a future mission.
The European programme referenced here is Air Zero G aboard Novespace's Airbus A310 Zero G. Novespace operates the aircraft, and Avico markets the public discovery flights under the Air Zero G brand. ESA also uses this aircraft for research campaigns. The public discovery programme is separate from ESA's scientific campaigns.
