At least 2 g. There was a recent centrifuge experiment at Moffett
where they were asking for volunteers for a 48 hour 2 g experiment.
Of course I said MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! But they wanted men
less than 35 years, and Im 40 so I begged and pleaded and agreed
to sign anything they wanted and remember John Glenn and yakkity yak

over. Turns out I was too tall, dammit. {8-[ The centrifuge could
only take someone 69 inches or less and Im 6 ft even (183 cm) and
they werent about to redesign the chamber. {8-[ grrrrrr...
