If there was gravity in space would it still be an extreme environment?

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.

What keeps the star from breaking apart?
That is still being debated but i think it is Gravity
What holds things in outer space?
most scientists and theory's state that gravity holds everything in space but gravity had to of started from somewhere, there are many questions with this topic such as: What exactly is gravity?, Where did it come from? or is Gravity the only force holding everything together or is there another unknown force out there we haven't discovered yet? etc. for example what controls gravity there has to be an origin from where this force was created. There is still many questions still unanswered....
Why do astronauts not go into space when they are on the moon?
The moon has gravity like the earth but not as powerful, yet enough to keep you on the surface
Why didnt Felix float when he jumped from space?
Because technically he wasn't in space. He was on the edge of Earths atmosphere. so gravity was still in effect.
Do astronaughts feel gravity in space?
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.
What does zero gravity in space do to humans?
Makes your muscles smaller. Your bones get weaker since the don't have to still constantly fight gravity force of pulling you down.
Is a bullet affected by gravity in space?
Yes. A bullet traveling with a sufficient speed would still penetrate something even if it is in space. Since air resistances does not play a role in space one might make the case that bullets are even more dangerous in space.
How does space have no gravity?
Gravitational pull still acts in space, but when you are in space, you are too far from the earth to feel any of its gravitational force. Gravitational force between two objects depends on their distance from each other and the further two objects are apart, the weaker the force of gravity is. So when we are in space, the earth's gravitational pull is still acting on us, but it is too far away for us to feel it.
What anastronaut working in Space near the International space station says she feel weightless. What does she mean Does the astronaut no have weight?
It actually means that the astronaut is in free fall, and doesn't FEEL gravity. Gravity does affect the astronaut, so the astronaut will still be accelerated towards Earth. However, the astronaut won't feel the gravity.
Why does an astronaut still have the same mass on the moon?
Your mass is the amount of matter that contains, it is your weight that will differ due to gravity. The astronaut still has the same amount of matter whether he be on earth, in space, or on the moon, though due to the different strenghts of gravity he will weight the most on earth, 1/6th of this on the moon, and be weightless in outer space.
Can birds breathe in space?
There have been experiments done with live birds in zero gravity. Still they can fly but lose orientation.
Does an astronaut cry tears in space?
Astronauts can cry tears in space. Tears will not run down your face, because there is no gravity, but they don't need gravity to form. When the tears get big enough they will break free of the eye when you blink and will float around in space forever until they freeze.
