Experience zero gravity in the vomit comet, coming in April to Las Vegas

zerog.gifSoon you’ll have another reason to vomit in Las Vegas.

You can do most everything in Sin City that you can’t get away with elsewhere. Starting April 21, you can pay to ride what’s affectionately known as the vomit comet.

Zero Gravity Corporation is bringing the newest, toughest and highest ride to Las Vegas. Check out gozerog.com to see what I’m referring to.

“The vomit comet” is the plane that astronauts use to simulate low to zero gravity conditions.

Zero Gravity Corporation uses a specially remodeled Boeing 727-200 airplane for the space rides. According to the TSA, the aircraft has perhaps the best safety record of any modern airliner and does very well in "hot and high" conditions.

Zero Gravity Corporation will be launching regular amusement flights beginning April 21, so you had better get ready. This is the prefect gift for the adrenaline junkie who has “done it all.”

The 90-minute flight, which departs from Signature Air Terminal at McCarran International Airport, simulates zero gravity during 15 “free-falls” in space and costs about $3,500 per person.

All I have to say is, “Bring on the vomit comet!”
