yes, Space would still be an Extreme Environment because it still has no oxygen, food or water and is both extremely hot and extremely cold.;P

There is gravity in space. This is what keeps our moon in orbit. The suns gravity keeps Earth and her siblings in orbit. The gravity of the super massive black hole at the center of our galaxy is what keeps our sun in orbit within our galaxy. So, there absolutely is gravity is space, but space is still an extreme envrionment.
In space, your blood is still red. The lack of gravity does not change the color of your blood. However, in a weightless environment, blood may behave differently due to changes in circulation.
Yes, a bullet is affected by gravity in space. Gravity is a fundamental force that acts upon all objects with mass, so a bullet will still be pulled towards a larger mass like a planet in space due to gravity's influence.
There is no height at which gravity completely ceases to exist. Gravity diminishes with distance from a massive body, such as the Earth, but it never reaches zero. Even at great heights, such as in space, gravitational effects are still present, although they may be weaker. For example, the International Space Station orbits Earth at about 400 kilometers where gravity is still about 90% of what it is at the surface.
Yes, there would still be gravity on a spaceship in open space due to the ship's acceleration creating a force similar to gravity. The direction of this artificial gravity would be towards the floor of the spaceship, simulating the gravitational pull we experience on Earth.
The moon has gravity like the earth but not as powerful, yet enough to keep you on the surface
Because technically he wasn't in space. He was on the edge of Earths atmosphere. so gravity was still in effect.
Yes, it is true that an astronaut's weight in space is effectively reduced due to the microgravity environment. While mass remains constant, weight is the force of gravity acting on that mass. In space, particularly in low Earth orbit, astronauts experience free fall, creating the sensation of weightlessness, even though gravity is still present at about 90% of its strength compared to Earth's surface.
Yes, the receptors of equilibrium, primarily located in the inner ear, would still function in space despite the absence of gravity. These receptors, known as the vestibular system, detect changes in motion and orientation based on fluid movement within the semicircular canals. However, in a zero-gravity environment, the lack of gravitational pull can lead to confusion and disorientation, as the body relies heavily on gravity to interpret balance and spatial orientation. Astronauts often experience these effects, leading to a phenomenon known as "space motion sickness."
While there is no gravity in space, gravity from Earth still affects objects in close proximity. Meteors fall towards Earth due to its gravitational pull. As the meteor enters Earth's atmosphere, it experiences friction which heats it up and causes it to glow, creating a meteor trail.
No, unless they are near a body with enough mass to have gravitational pull. For example, standing on the moon they would feel gravity (although it's a lot less than Earth's gravity ) but floating in space technically there is still gravity but it is such a small force that an astronaut would not feel it.
Makes your muscles smaller. Your bones get weaker since the don't have to still constantly fight gravity force of pulling you down.
False. While gravity is weaker in outer space compared to that on Earth, it still exists. Gravity is what keeps objects in orbit around planets and stars, and even affects the interactions between celestial bodies in the universe.
