Centrifuges can only provide modification of lateral forces. THERE IS NO WAY THEY CAN SIMULATE WEIGHTLESSNESS. I'll meet you halfway, however, and provide the possibility that while spinning one would also go some-what up and down to simulate weightlessness and thrusters. I'm sticking with the theory that it will end in a giftshop, however.

P.S. It's touche.
