No, unless they are near a body with enough mass to have gravitational pull. For example, standing on the moon they would feel gravity (although it's a lot less than Earth's gravity ) but floating in space technically there is still gravity but it is such a small force that an astronaut would not feel it.

What is space's atmosphere?
The atmosphere in space is very blured. It is dark. And silent. There is not one bit of gravity. This is why astronaughts take special equipment with them to space, as having no gravity can be very dangerous.
How come the space has a microgravity?
When a spacecraft is in orbit it is in a constant state of freefall. This means that it is constantly accelerating towards the center of the earth. Because of this the astronaughts feel apparent weightlessness, however the force of gravity at standard orbital altitudes is about 98% the same strenght as gravity at sea level.
How do astronaughts poo in space?
just let it go
Who has seen the Great Barrier Reef from outer space?
Astronaughts.
Why do astronaughts have to eat space food?
so they wont die. need i say more?
How do Astronaughts pee in space?
A tube attached the space suit is used to transport urine/poop to a compartment on the shuttle where it is then vented into space.
What do astronaughts do in space?
Astronauts do many things in space. Take photos, record voices, and exploring the universe. And they explore the moon :O hahaha
What anastronaut working in Space near the International space station says she feel weightless. What does she mean Does the astronaut no have weight?
It actually means that the astronaut is in free fall, and doesn't FEEL gravity. Gravity does affect the astronaut, so the astronaut will still be accelerated towards Earth. However, the astronaut won't feel the gravity.
Why there is zero gravity in space?
Actually there is gravity (non-zero gravity) in space. You just don't feel it when you are in free fall. For more details, read some articles (for example, in the Wikipedia) about "free fall".
Why does an object fall down?
Because due to the presence of gravity. Gravity is a force that pulls you down. In space there is no gravity so you won't feel this force
Have people walled on the moon?
yes people have the people that go into space are called astronaughts (sorry not a good speller)
What was it like for Neil Armstrong to have no gravity in space?
he would feel like he weighed nothing
