Students: Want to Experience Weightlessness?

Are you, or do you know someone who is:

• Between 18 and 24 years old (on or before June 10, 2016)?
• In good physical health?
• A legal resident within the 50 United States?
• Enrolled at a learning institution?

And most importantly, loves space exploration and wants a chance for a free ride on a ZERO-G airplane?

Then my pal Emily Calandrelli has a deal for you. She’s the host of “Xploration Outer Space”, and they’re partnering with Zero Gravity Corporation to hold the Student Astronaut 2016 contest.

They’re looking for students to create a three-minute (or shorter) video about space exploration and microgravity, and the winner will get to ride on a plane that simulates microgravity! Here’s Emily to explain:

There are rules and restrictions, so make sure you check them out. The contest closes on May 15, 2016, so get cracking. This will change your “What I Did on Summer Vacation” essay experience forever.
