This contest is fueled by the following news:
The Zero Gravity Corporation has been given the thumbs up by the Federal Aviation Administration to conduct
"weightless flights" for the general public, providing the sensation of floating in space. Tickets are on sale for around $3,000. A specially modified Boeing 727-200 aircraft, called G-Force One, will be used during a nationwide tour Sept. 14-24. The sensation of weightlessness is created inside G-Force One by flying a parabolic flight pattern, specifically a 10,000-foot "roller coaster", which takes place at between 22,000 and 32,000 feet altitude above Earth.
We would solve the non-gravity problems quickly, but the schools would be underbudgeted and would have to handle it with whatever monkey-bars and plumbing left-overs were avaiable. (I ran out of time, commentary is welcome.)
