Aircraft transformed into moon gravity research lab.
European scientists are using parabolic flights to simulate lunar gravity and prepare astronauts and technology for future moon landings as part of the NASA-led Artemis missions. During the flights, researchers test equipment and conduct experiments to better understand the challenges of operating in lunar gravity, including the effects on human health and performance. The Novespace parabolic flight airplane is likely to rise to the sky many times to help scientists and astronauts to better prepare for the 21st century's greatest adventure.
