LIFE IN ZERO G WITH STEVEN STRAIT: EPISODE 8 - LEAVING EARTH’S PULL

[@LancerNik13]

Gotta love that roci patch

[@SpaceRocks]

Yeah we'd love one too...

[@joelmulder]

I fully expect the final 3 seasons of The Expanse to be filmed in actual microgravity.

[@SpaceRocks]

This gets our vote :)

[@xnadave]

"I'm not an astronaut, but I play one on TV. And I'm also mostly an astronaut." Well done! I love this series.

[@SpaceRocks]

We're so pleased you think so!

[@DiegoCasella]

Yam seng, Beratna!!

[@Cyd_Goblin]

Now he's ready for another season! What an incredible experience, really happy for him!

[@SpaceRocks]

The feeling was real!

[@jocax188723]

Thing is, we've seen other people who are fully prepared for microgravity still get completely blindsided by it - Tom Scott and Scott Manley come to mind - but Steven takes it completely in stride. No moment of panic, no disorientation, just completely conscious control and ease of movement from the get go. I'm sure ESA's great prep and training as well as Steven's extensive history with wirework were probably contributing factors, but Neil's right - Steven's a natural.

[@SpaceRocks]

we were also blown away by this, it even impressed Neil as you say! It was a true joy to do.

[@Cunfuu]

OYE BERATNA... We missed you....

[@HobbitFeet42]

I love that KZbin wants to translate this.

[@rodentnolastname6612]

[@workingguy-OU812]

This - with a tear in my eye.

[@NyimaWongchuk]

We need more Expanse.... soooo.... sooo badly. But in the meantime, thank you to "Space Rocks" for making this!

[@SpaceRocks]

Thank YOU for watching!

[@TomCarrell1]

Steven is a natural in zero G. He couldn't stop smiling! Thanks for expanding our world!

[@SpaceRocks]

Thank YOU for tuning in!

[@faithmacgregor340]

Please make the last three books of the expanse!

[@FJsteffn]

Get the Rest of the Shows Cast into that plane please. I'd like to see Wes cluelessly hurl his giant body around and cara and Dom snicker and snort-laugh while trying to hold on to each other.😂 Loving esa's poineer work and the Show.

[@thedarkflowkiller]

Best thing ive seen on youtube in so long

[@SpaceRocks]

So glad you're enjoying!

[@stefanpernter9722]

So cool! I did the Zero G flight last March and Neil was responsible for our group. You just perfectly described what zero g feels like. 😎

[@SpaceRocks]

We will pass it onto Neil! He's great!

[@NeilMelvilleKenney]

Hi Stefan! Was a pleasure to fly with you.

[@stefanpernter9722]

@@NeilMelvilleKenneyIt was an honor 🫡 Already planning my second flight 😎

[@rizzo-films]

The microgravity indicators are such a fun look into astronaut subculture and is kinda perfect for The Expanse, which was so much about these types or subcultures, weird and believable little quirks associated with where people come from or where they work, especially the Belters.

[@NeilMelvilleKenney]

Nice observation! I'd never thought of them like that. I will now. Glad you enjoyed the episode.

[@SpaceRocks]

So human weren't they? We'd have never guessed that ourselves. :) -Alex

[@furtocske]

O Captain my Captain! 🤩

[@PreppyClaw]

Enjoyed this immensely! Big Expanse fan, books and series and a child of the space race. 8yo when Apollo 11 landed on the Moon and thrilled to see the promises of space finally starting to happen. JW

[@SpaceRocks]

So pleased that you enjoyed!

[@NyimaWongchuk]

This is DELIGHTFUL.

[@AZO2922]

Holden BERATNA! You looking good man! Love ya guys! Thx for the vid!

[@ptonpc]

He is a great science communicator. Thanks to all of you for doing this.

[@catnipghost31]

This is so cool he got to do this 😭

[@emerald42481]

"James Holden...shit just follows you around don't it kid"

[@ivanessa_schnitzel]

Love the microgravity indicators! *wombatlove* 😄

[@SpaceRocks]

We love these too. Hi-tech! :)

[@Paddy.2122]

Wonderful.

[@rodentnolastname6612]

And now Steven understands "Floaty Arms" 🤟😎

[@ivancastilla4529]

This looks so funny and interesting

[@CristianCiotti]

Next step LEO?

[@SpaceRocks]

We know people who know people.

[@anno-fw7xn]

So interesting! I hope for more! Would be interesting to see long haire in zero g

[@klaxxor]

"Bringing rocks down to earth"... Expanse fans like... :o

[@SpaceRocks]

Sorry! :)

[@RaniSalminen]

Anyone else think Steven would make a good Superman? 😁

[@HobbitFeet42]

Back down the well, inyalowda

[@formerastronaut]

Be careful he doesn't try and "legitimately salvage" your aircraft.

[@SpaceRocks]

We were a little worried about this!
