Surely one of THE main experiences of going into space is weightlessness, and if you weren't going to experience it you'd surely have to question the point of the whole thing??????
Some of them did look genuinely upset when they mentioned that. However, there are 3 gravity generators (invented just in time for the show) attached to the 'shuttle' in order to err, generate gravity.

Besides, once it's all over, they'll get to ride the vomit comet, which will give them weightlessness. That'd be one trip I'd really love to do!
