Tomorrow, our Brain-Flight experiment is ready to take off with the @ESA Air ZeroG ✈️ 86 Parabolic Flight Campaign - to explore how weightlessness influences the human mind 🧠 Birkbeck, University of London Birkbeck School of Psychological Sciences

Flight Day 1 of #86ESA Parabolic Flight: All good! Experiment running smoothly. Brain signals looking amazing! 🧠 Air ZeroG ✈️ European Space Agency Birkbeck, University of London Birkbeck School of Psychological Sciences SELGRA

Now that I’ve got my vomiting bag, I’m officially ready for tomorrow parabolic flight 💪🌀✈️ #FlightDay2 #86ESA Air ZeroG ✈️ Birkbeck, University of London Birkbeck School of Psychological Sciences SELGRA

Just came back from another round of parabolic flight experiment. And I feel ‘super connected to love’ (cit.) 🤣 Air ZeroG ✈️ European Space Agency Birkbeck, University of London Birkbeck School of Psychological Sciences

Flight Day 2 of #86ESA Parabolic Flight: All good again! Brain signals looking even more amazing! There’s simply nothing like the feeling of weightlessness… 🩷 Air ZeroG ✈️ European Space Agency Birkbeck, University of London Birkbeck School of Psychological Sciences SELGRA

Flight Day 3 of #86ESA Parabolic Flight All done! Can’t believe it’s already over! Sad it ended so quickly, but incredibly excited to look into the data.

We are all prisoners of gravity. Until weightlessness shows us what it means to be really free. Birkbeck School of Psychological Sciences Birkbeck, University of London SELGRA European Space Agency

🧠✈️ Mission complete! Our Birkbeck School of Psychological Sciences team has successfully completed all three flights of the #86ESA Parabolic Flight Campaign with European Space Agency and Air ZeroG ✈️. The Brain-Flight experiment ran smoothly throughout, capturing valuable data on how weightlessness affects brain activity.
