2 Experience the thrill of a lifetime See what is possible when you train at the NASTAR SM Center, the only commercial-use flight training facility in the World. Have you ever dreamed of: Gazing down upon Planet Earth from 360,000 feet? Shooting down an aircraft behind enemy lines? Experiencing intense G forces as you launch out of the atmosphere? Pulling a split-s and locking on to a bandit? The Air & Space Adventure Programs offer a unique chance to pull high G maneuvers in air combat or launch into space like an astronaut without ever having to leave the ground. The NASTAR SM Center offers state-of-the-art equipment integral to the training of military and civilian pilots, and astronauts. The most renowned device is the high-performance human centrifuge (STS-400/ATFS-400), which exposes you to the realistic sensations of flight in a dynamic and safe environment. With hands-on training from our expert instructors, you will sit in command of the STS-400/ATFS-400. Immersed in an authentic cockpit module complete with vivid real-world displays, control systems, and ambient surround sound, you ll find yourself believing you are experiencing the real thing. a dream come true - Craig B., Santa Barbara, California the single most unique and exciting experience of my life - david a., united kingdom - sergio f., Porto, Portugal enriching, thrilling and unique

This will physically and mentally prepare you to handle the physiological stresses that affect your body during space travel. The Countdown Cruising at 50,000 feet under WhiteknightTwo, the countdown to release ends, and you drop into quiet free fall. The sound of the engines fade away, when suddenly the rocket booster ignites! Pressed back and down into your seat, you let out a Whoo-hoo! as you are sent screaming towards the stars at over 3 times the speed of sound! The Earth from Above As the clear blue sky of day fades to black, the weight of the world literally fades away. Floating at 360,000 feet above earth, the beauty and silent serenity of space envelops you. As SpaceShipTwo rolls gracefully through apogee, you will behold a life-changing perspective of our planet that has until now, only been seen by an elite few.
