Why do astronauts feel weightless in a space shuttle?
Because of gravity
What is a space shuttle like in space?
Technically, as an astronaut is weightless in space, so should a space shuttle!
Why are astronauts floating above the Earth in a Space Shuttle really no weightless?
Weight is an expression of the gravitational force acting on an object. When the space shuttle is in orbit around the Earth, it is held there by the Earth's gravity. Since gravity is still acting on the shuttle and the astronauts inside, they still have weight. They are described as "weightless" because an object in orbit is in a constant state of free fall.

Does an astronaut have mass on the space shuttle if its weightless?
yes
Who flew on the space shuttle?
Astronauts aboard the space shuttle were primarily NASA astronauts, astronauts from Canada, Europe and other countries.
Are astronauts weightless during the Shuttle's launch?
Noop. In fact, as the Shuttle is accelerating, the astronauts are experiencing not only the pull of gravity, but also the acceleration of the rocket. For the comfort of the crew, they try to keep the excess gravity to about 4 G, basically 4 times the pull of gravity. Only after the engines have stopped, and the shuttle is no longer accelerating, will the astronauts feel weightless, as the Shuttle and astronauts are all falling around the Earth at the same speed.
Why is it advantageous for astronauts to live on a space station rather than a space shuttle?
it is advantageous for astronauts to live on a space station rather a space shuttle because a space station allow astronauts to stay and work extended time . A space shuttle is a space craft to transport astronauts , satellites, and other materials to and from space.
