apollo 13

I was watching apollo 13 the other day and realised for the first time that they actually floated round the spacecraft.. i was wondering how they managed to do this as they would not be able to go to space ovbiously. Cheers

I believe they filmed in about 1 minute slots. If you take a plane high enough and then fall down at a great speed it creates weightlessness, like in space. They filmed the film this way. Must have taken forever!
