KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. — World-famous physicist Stephen Hawking experienced eight rounds of weightlessness on Thursday during a better-than-expected airplane flight that he saw as the first step toward a trip in space.

"It was amazing," Hawking told reporters afterward, using his well-known computerized voice. "The zero-G part was wonderful, and the high-G part was no problem. I could have gone on and on.

"Space, here I come," he said.

Ok, NOW I've seen it all! :P

I think it's cool he doesn't let his handicap limit his mindset.

Anyone else think that the picture will become one of those pictures which will be used "randomly" in forums for shits & giggles?

If any one deserves to get into space, it is Stephen Hawking.
I think everyone has to agree with me on that.
