Von Braun weightlessness flight, 1968 C016 / 4201
Von Braun weightlessness flight. German-US rocket scientist and engineer Wernher von Braun (1912-1977) experiencing free-fall inside a KC-135 aircraft. Von Braun played key roles in developing German rocket weapons during World War II, and US rockets in the 1950s and 1960s, especially those used to reach the Moon. He was Director of the Marshall Space Flight Center from 1960 to 1970. The KC-135 aircraft fly parabolic arcs to produce weightlessness periods of 20 to 25 seconds to provide a free-fall environment for testing equipment and training astronauts in the effects of spaceflight and being in Earth orbit. Photographed in 1968
