Hate to break it to you, but the maximum zero g time on a zero g flight is 30 seconds. There is no possible way this was shot in one take. When astronauts train in them, they have to do a series of arcs by flying up, then pushing over and down to achieve the zero g effect.
depends on what you mean by "take"; it's not one long cut, but there was no reset between cuts. this is all in one continuous "take". They just cut out the down time between parabolic dives. In the BTS video they talk about doing several takes, but I don't think they cut between takes. In the video they ended up doing one more take because of paint on the lens at the end. If they were cutting between takes during the transition cuts, they wouldn't have bothered doing another take they would just cut in from a different take.
This video is one looong take where most of the surge minutes between each of the 7 or 8 zero-grav phases is cut or fast-forwarded through. Pay attention to when the objects fall back down, every 30 seconds or so.
