Does yeast grow better in sugar water or salt water?
Yeast Grows much better in sugar water. They are micro organisms that need the sucrose in the sugar to activate and grow, without the sugar very little would happen. If you used salt water it would most likely kill the yeast.
'How do we prepare yeast for use in kitchen?
In most bread, roll and pastry recipes, the yeast has to be "proofed", which means dissolving in warm water (110 degrees), with sugar to activate (or proof) the yeast. If the yeast begins to foam up and increase in size, then it is still good. If it doesn't, then the yeast is either too old, or the water was too hot or not warm enough. If the water is too hot, it kills the yeast, and if it's too cold, it won't dissolve and activate the yeast. You can get yeast granules in individual packets, in cake form, and granules in a jar. While you can use which ever type you prefer, it's usually best to use the kind the recipe calls for, at least until you are more familiar with the different forms of yeast, and how to use them. I prefer the kind in a jar, because I it gives me more control over how much I want to use, whereas the other types don't. The most common way to proof yeast is to put the desired amount in a bowl (I warm the bowl with hot water first), then add 1/4 cup very warm water, then sprinkle about a teaspoon of sugar on top. You can stir it if you want, but it isn't necessary. The yeast should be fully proofed in about 10 minutes, and ready to add to your recipe.
Can you brew beer with bakers yeast?
Since it's yeast, it would produce beer but not nearly at the quality a specific beer brewing yeast would. Beer brewing should use specific strains of yeast to properly activate fermentation that turns the sugars of the beer into alcohol. Different types of beer require different types of yeast in the recipe to turn out properly. Baker's yeast is specifically intended for baking, while Brewers yeast is what you would want to use for brewing beer. If you use bakers yeast for beer brewing, your recipe will not turn out properly and your batch of beer will be probably not taste very good.

Liquids are very, very slightly compressible. On earth, liquids are slightly compressed by earth's atmospheric pressure, which does not exist in space. Therefore, liquids will be very slightly less dense in space.
