One of the coolest features of Apple’s iDevices, specially the iPad, is the ability to recognize the orientation of the device and adjust the rotation of image on screen accordingly. But what happens if we take the iPad to the International Space Station?
Well some guys did something very similar. They took an iPad for a ride in a Zero-G parabolic flight, similar to the well-known NASA’s Vomit Comet. Can you guess what happened to the iPad? Surprise!
Maybe not as serious as the problem that Jim Lovell and his crewmates had on Apollo 13, but a problem indeed. I was really not surprised at all, since I expected no more, but it’s nice to see that someone actually gave it a try.
