Spin Cycle: Training for High G Flying

Spin Cycle: Training for High G Flying

As part of the Your Place In Space initiative, the Department of Defense (DOD) invites you to explore their space-inspired K-12 STEM resources on its agency website. We hope you find helpful materials that equip and empower your students to discover, explore, and create their place in space! 

Training in a human centrifuge under the guidance of people like SSgt. Andre Scott, an aerospace physiology craftsman, the pilots wear custom clothing and learn techniques to handle High G environments.
