Yuri's Night Raffle



MiT has done it again. To celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the first Man in Space, Yuri Gagari, this club is raffling off a chance to ride in zero gravity.

ZERO-G Corp.'s G-FORCE ONE, a cargo plane thats flies in a trajectory that cancels out gravity in certain parts of the arc, was used in Tom Hanks "Apollo 13" to provide the weightless scenes.

Anyhow it's $10.40 per ticket.

If nothing else it would be a good theme for a party, take note.
