We’ve pretty much established here already that, despite various media reports, William Shatner is not one of the celebrities who have signed up for suborbital spaceflights with Virgin Galactic. Still, this explanation from Shatner in an article from The Times of London is a bit humorous:
“One little tile burns and you drop to your death? I’ve been approached to do some things with astronauts and the preparation that astronauts go through. One of the things you have to do is get used to weightlessness and they have a Boeing plane that does an outside loop so you’re weightless for about 30 seconds. It’s called the Vomit Comet and I don’t like to vomit.”
