The zero g plane, also known as a parabolic flight, or the vomit comet, flies in parabolic trajectories to give a brief experience of weightlessness. This flight, operated by Novespace in Bordeaux, France, offered 14 weightless parabolas, 2 parabolas with a simulation of moon gravity, and one with Mars gravity. I brought some demos to try out on the vomit comet, with little to no success. But who can ever prepare for these weightless things? Watch to find out whether I threw up!

I enjoyed the honesty in this. Sometimes we spend a lot of time figuring out an experiment that doesn't work like we imagine. I totally relate to that feeling of failure on your face. I love that you explained that process and owned it.

Oh! Hi Destin! I love to see the science community of youtube talking about stuff.
You're awesome too!
Thumbs up if you want to see Destin in Zero G flight.
"there was a dancer on our flight and a startup testing VR goggles" that sounds like the best party ever
lol
😂
i wonder what a classic ballet would look like in zero G
@@brotheralaric7177
Um... very interesting and quite entertaining, I suppose?
Although 22 seconds of zero-g might be a bit too short for e.g. performing Swan Lake in one take, so it might be prudent to consider stuffing some ballet artists in a rocket and shooting them up to the ISS instead. On the other hand, OK Go managed to put together a 3:21 music video which was filmed during one single zero-g flight ("Upside Down & Inside Out", ruclips.net/video/LWGJA9i18Co/видео.html ), so with a bit of creative video editing that still might be possible. :-)
@@drops2cents260 i watched the video, and it's impressive, and yes, maybe one day, when space station will look more SF and not like the interior of a submarines, maybe we ccould have zerog ballet .
Man, this got me all teary eyed. Your enthusiasm is seriously contagious!

Sadly she now is severely ill with ME/CFS and bedridden and tube fed. The last person to deserve that outcome 😢
5:43 I like how they did it in unison. They truly are the physics dream team.
Can we like this twice?
yeah but then You unlike this video
PBS Digital Studios i tripple it with multiple accounts xD
You just get others to like it. Not that you'll have to try hard here.
does it count if you also like veritasium's vid posted simultaneously? two likes per flight anyway

ha haa I great comment.
ok i had a giant smile while watching this video like when i was a kid
tim gersh ME TOO!! At 51 I would LOVE to do this!!
5:48 “I feel a little bit weird”
(Turns to announce to viewers)
“We feel weird”
Best Derek quote
Dianna: 1.8 G is so hard
Pilots: we feel nothing
True the most i got is 4.5 g and -1 g
Mitchell Kok -1g ???
@@ga004mer2 yes
@@mitchellkok1975 -1g is impossible
What do you mean -1 g is impossible thats a lie
I got to do that in 1981, I'm 61 years old now and it's still the most fun I ever had, or at least with all my clothes on anyway.
I used to do it as part of my job except I was strapped in my seat to monitor airplane data on my laptop.
k Johnny.
Lol chad boomer
😄
Just think all the zero G scenes in the movie Apollo 13 was filmed like this. It took over 600 parabola trips to get all the footage.
That's amazing, I never knew that, thanks :>
Now I have to rewatch it knowing that
Makes a great film even more interesting
just think all those astro nots pretend to do this in space lol
@@garym2293 Not. There have been unedited clips, so it's impossible.
@@garym2293 If you had taken the time to become an astronaut instead of spreading false conspiracies on RUclips, maybe you could have seen that. And forget the fact amateur astronomers have repeatedly filmed the ISS.
@@ominous-omnipresent-they What a joker you are LOL
Really appreciate the enthusiasm and passion you put in explaining your feelings honestly! Happy Physicsing Girl!
This is now officially on my bucket list!
Cheers from France ! 🇫🇷 Nice video and awesome experience ! 👍

Diana is going to have some great stories to tell her grandchildren. Or videos, either way. But honestly, while I do envy her some of her experiences, unless you've been extremely timid we've all done amazing things, seen amazing things, or been present when amazing things happened.
They might have been different things, but they're ours, and through the rosy lens of nostalgia, they can only get better.
Plus, I kind of like her giggling. It's cute.
Love your stuff! Just started watching, but I’m a Smarter Every Day fan and a retired civil / structural engineer, so I dig this kind of content. Keep doing what you’re doing! Great stuff!
Diane, you are the BEST!! You completely communicated your wonder and joy at the experience!! Thank you for the excellent video!
nice to see french and english communities together!! Love

Ouiyes
we love u too guys !

Ouais..yes!
As a French, I only see human beings from the same species living on the same piece of rock in the same part of the universe. Cheers from baguetteland.
Love that you made "failure" look so fun! It's all part of the scientific process and having a curious mind!
That made made failure doesn't change your reality 😂😂
MAIS BRUCE !!! ... quel plaisir de voir sa tete sur youtube en ce moment, elle me manque cette époque ou il faisait des Feat avec tout le monde XD
Your excitement was so infectious. Thank you - made my day.
Diana, you're a total joy and asset to the educational RUclips community. Your ability to so fully communicate your fascination for science is rare and wonderful. I hope you have a great day!
that looks like fun, i want to do that too...
"looks at the price"
CRIES
It's 5.6k . But if u think about it, It's a once in a lifetime experience. It's actually really good value. The site I Checked said u get 20x 30seconds 0 gravity. So that's 10mins of 0g for 5.6k USD. I mean I would do this probably just once.
@@Numberonesorabjifan where do you check that?

4:00 now imagine a UFO looking at this crazy plane....
Feel better Diana!
Nice Video. I've been on that flight when I was a student a number of years ago, we were part of the Student Parabolic Flight Campaign. We did a microbiology experiment looking at the motility of blue-green algae to see if it metabolises quicker in 0g. Your description of 0g and 1.8 were spot on for me. Love it! I had a big silly smile on my face the whole time I was watching your video
Thanks for the video, it allowed me to re-live the coolest experience i've ever had.
Kickstart Physics what was the result of your experiment?
I love the relationship that you and Derek from Veritasium have. The great friendship that leads to fantastic collaborations is inspiring. I feel that the collegiality that you two have is almost to the level of the Greens, and they were born with that relationship.
thank you physics girl, thank you for all the hope
Thanks Diana and your team you are doing great job
I met the VR goggle guys at Laval in France. I tried their demo where you get to jump around while your weight is compensated by pullies to make you feel like you're on the moon. They're cool dudes :)
This video kinda made me sad, because I know that I will never get to try this ;(
Uhuh
right? I feel the same from her first video she made. wink;)
If you can save around 5000-6000€ you can :p
Well I am 99.9999% sure that I will not be able to save that as I am probably going to end up as one of those underdeveloped obese guys who still live at their parent's place at the age of 30.
Jimmy Squiky Let's not offend Dianna bro. :))
Great video Dianna. That looks like a lot of fun and I too will add it to my Bucket List. You're awesome!
Your enthusiasm about this adventure took it from 'cool video' to 'awesome video'! Thank you for sharing this with us!
how did you get your phone to get into portrait mode in no gravity, after all it also has a 'gravity' sensor?
yeah right just forgot that ... thanks man
It's using an accelerometer, so I'd say by accelerating.
simple. Put it into that mode IN gravity, then turn off "rotation". It will then stay locked into that until you turn "rotation" off.
Can't you take the picture in any orientation and then just rotate the pic afterwards?
but in the video the phone was in landscape orientation that's why I asked that ...

Moonlight Gaming it would keep spinning in the direction you threw it and with a speed equal to the force you applied to it, slowly decreasing it's speed because of air friction... annnnd that's pretty much it.

Who else would donate to see her and simone doing it again? 10:47 "and it was over" this kills me
In the early 1980s, I was the Stage Development Engineer for the Peacekeeper (MX) ICBM Stage IV. At one point, we switched propellant tanks on the stage from positive expulsion to surface tension tanks. One critical part of that was characterizing the dynamic effect of propellant slosh on the stage, which did a LOT of maneuvering. That's when I got to fly on the NASA KC-135 - the one where all of the astronauts trained, and where they filmed the zero-G scenes in "Apollo 13." Yeah, it was absolutely the most fun I've ever had in my life. It was a kick seeing you experience it, and having as much fun as I did! (As an aside, my best friend and roommate from college went to work at NASA/Glenn, doing variable G combustion research. He has the most hours of anyone on the KC-135 after Bob Williams, the guy who ran the operation.)

"and dive back down for beers"
Aren't subtitles awesome.
@mike talas First I heard the beers version after reading the comment, then I turned the subtitles to check if that was true and now after reading the subtitle and listening to her once again, I don't know how I heard the beers thing
@mike talas Now, I can't hear beer at all, only 'towards the earth'

All cool physics aside, Derek and Diana look cool together. It was fun looking at these videos
Prashant Pandey Dirk (from Verbistablium) ; )
Yeah 😍
I love this lady. I hope I can do zero g soon!! Slowly getting obsessed with the idea.
this whole video i had the biggest smile on my face and i was so excited! this video made my day indeed
This is one of my dreams too. I hope to experience it one day as well. It looks *insanely* fun.
That was so cool!! *jumps in car and drives to Bordeaux*
Bruce is an actual living legeng ! He (his videos) actually help my friend and me to vulgarize a topic on brain hemisphere 2 years ago and it was a freaking blast !
FANTASTIC! I love Dianna and this channel!! Thanks!
came from derek; nice video!! (:
Haha Bruce sitting behind you like "Hey, I exist too!"
It was an amazing episode!!! I am full of grateful 4 u show these efect !!! On the Earth instead of the space !!!
I cried watching this video! I feel the joy and none of boredom feelings is ever come up! Thank you for making this! Amazing what science can explain things!
Watch this 😂😂 Someone will cry for you. ruclips.net/video/P36xhtpw0Lg/видео.html&ab_channel=CanadianSpaceAgency
I learned that the veritasium dude is named Derek Muller. I watch all of his vids and I never knew.
oh god, I got motion sickness just from watching it. But I still wanna do it.
Exactly. I know I'd be ill for days...but... still worth it.
Non-drowsy Dramamine. It works wonders. I puke on everything (generally don't get carsick) and always take it. I've never been sick on a airplane, ship, or boat since I started.
I'm so happy for you! What a neat experience.
That was a fun video! So glad you got the opportunity to do the zero-G parabolas!
you are so fun, I'm glad I've found your channel
Welp, e-penser brought me here, and I think I'll stay for a while :D
That was very cool. I am glad you were able to do this!
I love this video . Best one you've done yet for me
I can't believe I wasn't subscribed to this channel, fixed now.
Same.
4:59 derek and u didn't give much attention to the guy in the back 😕
Love the passion for physics Dianna has. It's infectious :-)
Truly this is wonderful. You have a delightful way of inspiring seeking in others.
PG: I'm not nervous as Normal
Veritasium: YOU'RE NOT??
The one who's so much concerned with the other's states by their provoking will be the most pathetic miser
Carl Sagan would be proud :)
somehow this brought joy tears to my eyes. Lovely content
So very cool! Thanks for sharing the adventure!
Failed experiments aren't really failures. They're just learning experiences. I sure learned a few things watching this video.
Also, if you pause at exactly 5:01, Derek looks like his anti-nausea vaccine may have....had an additive in it. xD Super cool video, and I'm glad you guys had so much fun.
Edit: It turns out that it's actually quite difficult to see Derek the way I saw him simply by pausing, but I did manage to catch you looking quite derpy this way. Lol. If you manually click on the tracking bar at 5:01, you should be able to see it. Maybe bring some Scooby Snacks for Derek next time. xD
8:53... Me looking inside the freezer finding something to eat.😢
Someone who does really want to describe the happy one unhappy is the most unhappy! Don't let yourself so plunge down in less than zero gravity! 😂😂
Dear No Name, you make me laugh! thanks!
I love the joy that you have for physics :)
This is definitely on my bucket list
This video was great, informative and very interesting. How would weightlessness affect somebody with high blood pressure and on medication? I love this video, Great!🌈🌸🤗
On earth the heart is pumping blood in your brain against the gravity. In space your heart pumps at the same rate but without the gravity your blood pressure in your brain will increase. So having high blood pressure on earth can have a negative effect and every astronaut (and for statistical reasons their close relatives) must have a normal blood pressure.
Imagine seeing the pilot float away in 0gs
Can't believe I only just found your channel! Love it!
You have a permanent smile on your face which puts a smile on my face, watching and listening too you is a pleasure
I was like "I wanna do this! I have motion sickness medicine to use first too!"
"So they had to give us shots"
"..."
5:52 "maybe that enhanced the experience"
oh yea i'm sure he did
Just subscribed to your channel. Loving it and have just gone through many videos. It’s exciting well done
Your inner child really manifested itself during this video. That was very pleasant to watch. Thank you Dianna.
“We feel weird”- Derek Muller of Veritasium
One thing that got me was how her hair reacted to the weightlessness because I have seen other videos of people with long hair in actual space and it just stands up straight as if it was gelled or something. Weird.
Gravity pulls hair down and bends it. Without gravity, hair straightens in the direction it exits the skin. I think the difference you see with astronauts on the ISS is that these also typically have only very rudimentary hair care and no styling that forces hair into a certain shape.
It is very interesting. So the lighter weight objects will react to 0-gravity in more visible and noticeable way than the heavy stuff!
Very cool. Thanks, Physics Girl!
Your face is so lovely when you are amazed. And you were amazed a lot in the Zero-G experience :)
Wow I never thought about how or if accelerometers would work in zero G. Guessing the VR headset must be visual tracking only.
Jaqen actually not only ^^
Jaqen I imagine they cancel out 9.8 m/s from the accelerometer, or even better, a reading from the aircraft on what to cancel out.
hello english friend we are french and we come in peace :D
Willocks thanks for the democracy but we'll still have some of your territories.
Bad. She has been destroyed by Macron in yesterday's debate.
Take me to your leader. ;P
Gazaret, I'd say they actually both self-destroyed. Macron was even more pathetic and childish than ever, and still, Le Pen was the cringiest... why can't France have nice things ?
I love when people talk about politics in a unrelated youtube video.
I envy this experience a lot and still I'm smiling so much. Thank you.
OMG thank you for your hard work. That looks like fun.
Any links to the dancer who was on the flight?

my french isn't very good, but i think you said "hello to the world", in which case: hello from the world :)
Wow wow wow bow wow
Thank you Bruce!
I loveeee your inner child when doing what you love 🥺
Such a cool video. I'm surprised your hair wasn't covering your face the whole time!
So if I understand correctly, you are "weightless" on the climb because the plane sort of throws you up and then decelerates underneath you? I've experienced this sort of thing on roller coasters, but I'm surprised that the effect lasts for a full 11 seconds...
I guess when you think about it though, the plane is traveling so fast that it "throws" you quite a distance!
No. The plane follows a straight line. It looks like an ellipse (not a parabola as stated in the video) because intuitively you use an accelerated reference frame. So it's following part of a normal orbital trajectory, just one that intersects the surface.
I'm so jealous :(
Thanks for sharing this. AMAZING. You've gained a new subscriber!
Awesome video! Thanks so much for this inspiring content!
