Europe 1 was able to board an Airbus zero-G plane, one of the few devices in the world capable of offering moments of weightlessness. Around thirty scientists are testing their experiments thanks to a flight mission funded by CNES, the French space agency.
With electrodes placed on guinea pigs, a CNRS team is working on solutions to travel sickness, which is still poorly understood but which affects several million French people. After two hours of flight, the AirbuszeroG is back on Earth, with hundreds of data for scientists to analyze over several weeks.
