How do astronauts come back to earth from space?
They use a vehicle with a heavily heat insulated underside. The heat shield protects them from the intense heat generated from the friction of passing through the atmosphere, which also acts as a brake. Further down they rely on more traditional aerodynamic features. The Space Shuttle used wings, and landed as a (very poor) aircraft, other craft use parachutes for the final descent.

Where the brake levers apply force in a bicycle?
Well, the lever will apply a force to a linkage, connecting the lever to the actual brake. Then the force will travel through the linkage, down to the brake. In the brake, the force will be used to pinch a moving surface between two stationary surfaces, and the friction generated there will slow the bike down.
