This summer, the Northrop Grumman Weightless Flights of Discovery program took 240 teachers from around the globe on a flight of a lifetime. Through Zero-G's parabolic flight, they experienced temporary weightlessness comparable to what humans would experience during space travel. The program was designed to help educators inspire and nurture student interest in technical or scientific careers. Look back on the seven flights and get to know these educators.
