    well there was that incident in '86 when the shuttle Atlantis was ‘accidentally’ launched with 4 kids aboard during an engine test. The documentary about it called Space Camp is riveting.

      Few people know that one of those kids was now famous actor, Joaquin Phoenix. I watched that documentary many times and was shock to find out that people speak in a type of slow motion when in zero G.

        Technically speaking it was low-G. None of Joachim Phoenix’s movies are strictly “zero-G”
