What is space junk made up of?
Space junk is nonfunctional satellites, later stages of booster rockets that made it into orbit, and any thing left behind by astronauts and cosmonauts, such as gloves, nuts, bolts, garbage bags, ice and the like.
How many Russian cosmonauts have walked on the moon?
Zero. Only the US has landed any humans on the moon.
Were there any tragedies in the shuttle program?
Yes the Shuttle Columbia, suffered a great tragedy in 2003 and the Shuttle Challenger was lost to an explosion after launch in 1988. Columbia was one of the first shuttles and made over 20 trips to space. She was a great ship. R.I.P Cosmonauts.
Did any Russians go to the moon?
As far as we know, there have ,as of yet, been no Russian to visit the moon in any form (landing or orbiting).... officially. It is hard to know if any Russians might have unsuccessfully have made a trip of any kind to the Moon (that is went, and survived a trip back). Radio telemetry, which could have been monitored for differnet forms of radio transmission, either electronic signals or voice communicationin, may have been dtected in different ways by eavesdropping Americans or others, could have given clues to a surreptitions try by the Soviets. It is suspected, usually without evidence, that some Russians have died without official confirmation by Soviet authorities on details of their 'missions'. Attempts at keeping failure incidents secret have usually been known by American intelligence, such as space articles exploding on the pad,etc. (in at least one case, a rocket exploded on the pad during a launch attempt, but the cosmonauts were safely carried away at the last instant by a launch escape system, again, detected by American intelligence)
What color is deep space?
Deep space, or any "space", has no color...it is a vacuum, devoid of any light.
If there were any astronomers who were lost in space?
There were two fatal all-hands accidents in the US Space shuttle program, the Challenger and the Columbia. Rumors have it a number of Soviet shots ended in fatal accidents or cosmonauts literally dead and adrift- in outer space. These have never been confirmed by the Russians. apart from the two space shuttle accidents, there were no in-flight underway fatal accidents in the entire US Space program- the Apollo lol flash fire occured ON THE GROUND testing an oxygen life-support system that tragically, caught fire.

Did any cosmonauts die when mir exploded?
yes 2 of the 3 survived that were on Mir
Who was the first woman to die in space?
Among US astronauts the Challenger crew members Judith Resnik and Christa Mcauliffe both died- with all other hands- when their craft exploded barely 2 minutes into the trajectory. I do not know if any Female cosmonauts have died in space-related accidents . The other fatal spaceflight accident involving two females- also was the Space Shuttle Columbia- which occured on re-entry, not launch. In orbit proper- mercifully that hasn"t happened yet. I do not know about Russian female cosmonauts.

Has anyone ever saw a real alien?
No, but that does not mean there aren't any. Scientists, Astronomers and Cosmonauts are trying to find evidence of alien life. They have sent signals to Space to see if there are any. For example on Uranus, Neptune Or one of Jupiter's Galilean Moons (The largest) There have been ocean or sea like things and there just might be life there.
