"Marooned" (1969). Stars Gregory Peck, Richard Crenna, David Janssen, James Franciscus, Gene Hackman, Lee Grant, Mariette Hartley.
"Destination Moon" (1950) had a ship go to the moon and almost get stranded there for lack of fuel.

This depends on where the astronauts were headed to, If going to the moon, then no they do not leave earth's orbit. But if astronauts were to go to Mars, then yes. To go to other planets and to travel through space, Astronauts will leave Earth's orbit. When traveling to space from earth, Astronauts leave the atmosphere and will leave the orbit if necessary and if the travel distance is far enough.
because both the astronaut and the satellite is attracted towards the center of the earth
The weightless astronaut landed on Mars, which has no gravity.
There is (apparent) zero gravity. The absolute gravity in orbit is about 90% of what it is on the surface of the earth, but the effective gravity is zero, and for a good reason.The fact is that in orbit, you are actually falling, but your forward speed is such that the curvature of the planet is dropping at the same rate that you are falling.And the astronauts are falling at the exact same speed as their capsule. This is called freefall.
No.
Gravity
no they can weigh more or less depending which planets orbit
yes
Yes. Gravity is what keeps them in orbit. If it were not for gravity, those astronauts would continue out into space in a straight line.
weightless
Astronauts launch from the earth atop a rocket or in a shuttle with at least enough thrust to achieve orbit.
In recent years astronauts have gone to the International Space Station, which is in a low orbit around Earth.
Mercury
yes e2020 niggs
With the exception of those that went to the moon, they orbit the earth.
they are falling through space around earth
