W =mg

Weight = Mass X Gravitation Force

...(N)....=..(kg)..X......(N/kg)............

In space, there is (almost) no gravity, so (since weight is proportional to gravity) there is (almost) no weight...

Hence the term "weightlessness"

Can matter and space exist in the same place?

Yes, matter and space can exist in the same place. Matter occupies space, so they coexist within the same physical location. The presence of matter within a space gives that space substance and volume.


Can liquids exist in space?

Liquids can exist in outer space, if they are in an enclosed area, such as a space craft, or a space station. They can not exist in a liquid state in unprotected outer space. Either they will freeze due to the extreme cold, or they will melt (or turn to gas) due to extreme heat.

How do you change weight on earth to weight in space?

To calculate weight in space, you would use the formula: Weight in space = Weight on Earth x (gravitational pull of space / gravitational pull of Earth). Since gravitational pull in space is typically much lower than on Earth (about 0.17 times that of Earth), your weight in space would be significantly less. Keep in mind this calculation assumes a constant gravitational pull throughout the region of space you are in.
