Not quite. It explains why they have no weight. But their mass doesn't change.
It's the same on earth, on the moon, and everywhere in between.
while the earth is orbiting the sun the moon is orbiting the earth

he was revering to a high speed light that passed by them while in orbit around earth . I believe they were going twice the speed of sound at the time. there's been several astronauts reports of UFOs' while orbiting earth not just US. astronauts. Russian astronauts for instance.

At periapsis, that is, when it is closest to Earth in its orbit.
Astronauts in orbit around Earth experience weightlessness because they are in a state of free fall. While they are moving at high speeds tangentially to the Earth’s surface, the gravitational pull of the Earth keeps them falling towards it. However, because they are also moving forward, they continuously "fall" around the Earth rather than directly towards it, creating the sensation of floating. This condition is known as microgravity.
Yep, you got it.
No, the Moon is not in Earth's atmosphere. The Earth's atmosphere extends about 480 kilometers above the surface, while the Moon is about 384,400 kilometers away from Earth. The Moon is in space, orbiting around the Earth.
The first moon to be discovered while orbiting Earth was the Moon itself. Other moons (like Earth's mini-moons or temporary natural satellites) have been detected over the years. These moons are usually small and don't stay in orbit for long periods, making them challenging to observe.
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.
The lunar module consisted of two parts: the descent stage, which remained on the lunar surface, and the ascent stage, which carried the astronauts back to the command module orbiting the Moon. The ascent stage re-entered the Earth's atmosphere while the descent stage was left behind on the Moon.
