About the Company

Zero Gravity Corporation is a privately held space tourism, research, and education company whose mission is to make the excitement and adventure of space accessible to the public.

Available for qualifying experiments, ZERO-G encourages projects from universities, corporations, government, and individuals alike seeking to conduct serious investigations in Martian, Lunar, zero, and hypergravity environments, especially those planning a suborbital, orbital or deep space scientific program. The Zero-G Team is composed of highly talented individuals scattered from coast-to-coast, who work remotely or travel with the Zero-G aircraft. The company is expanding rapidly, and our work environment is dynamic and fast-paced. We are passionate about our unique product, and our team are experts in the industry.
