If you want to experience zero-g yourself, the The Zero G Experience is selling tickets and flies out of Las Vegas. For a few thousand dollars, you get fifteen weightless sessions, each lasting about 30 seconds. I think you even get a dvd of yourself, and they’ll let you put m&m’s in the air and eat them like Pacman*.
