European scientists are turning an aircraft into a laboratory that simulates lunar gravity to prepare astronauts and technology for future moon landings as part of the NASA-led Artemis missions.
Parabolic flights produce reduced gravity via steep climbs and nerve-racking dives. The experience is out of this world, but for this reporter it had its challenges.
Spending time in space can damage the brains of astronauts, according to new research that poses questions for the long-term risks of future space travel.
