Us astronaut's have it pretty hard. Everything you do you are constantly not on the floor. If we pour water in a cup it comes out. Sometimes if you want to you can be strapped down to your bed so you will not float around. In some ways it is fun floating around everywhere. Imagine that.

Which planet has the most gravity beside earth?
apart from mercury,venus & mars (Pluto is no longer a planet).all other planets in our solar system has much greater gravity than earth.also some of the gas giants,or planets like Saturn have some satilites that have property's,that may outweight that of the earth. example titan;
Describe two ways earth is like the other planets in our solar system?
it is a planet and it has a similar shape like the rest of the planets.
Which is determined by the force of gravity?
-- Your weight is, as long as you're standing on the Earth or some other planet, but it's different in different places. -- Also, the speed of the moons, comets, asteroids and planets in their orbits, and also the length of time it takes them to revolve in their orbits.
Why don't planets attract each other?
because gravity and inertia are kinda of playing a game of tug a war but both sides are equal so they do not move
Earth is different from the other planets in our solar system because it -?
Because (as far as we currently know) Earth is the only planet in our solar system that supports life.
Why does earth have gravity and other planets don't?
The other planets do have gravity.
Why is earth the only with life?
It has different gravity and climate than other planets.
Why does earth have gravity and the other planets do not?
All massive objects (including all planets) have gravity.
Why is there only gravity on earth and not any other planet?
All planets have gravity, not just Earth.
What holds Earth and the the other planets in their orbit?
Gravity
Is mass affected by gravity on earth and other planets?
No. Weight is affected by gravity.
How is gravity used in a sentence?
Earth has gravity rather than other planets.
Does earth have the most gravity compared to the other planets?
No. Of the planets in this solar system, Jupiter, by far, has the strongest gravity.
What forces holds the earth and other planets in the Sun's orbit?
Simple. Gravity! The planets are dragged in by the gravity of the sun.
Does earth have strong or weak gravity?
Because of Earth's size, and considering it as one of the smallest planets, it has a weak gravity compared to the OTHER planets. Most planets have greater gravity because of their size. Earth has a stronger gravity compared to mars, mercury, and venus.
How does the gravity of the sun impact on earth?
The sun's gravity keeps the earth and the other planets in orbit around it
Why do you weigh more on earth that other planets?
You don't, necessarily. On Jupiter you would weigh more than twice your weight on Earth. Your weight would be different on the different planets because the strength of gravity varies.
