No. A portion of his ashes were placed on a satellite in orbit, but the orbit of this satellite decayed and it burned up in Earth's atmosphere. A new mission is planned which will send some of his ashes into deep space.

What is the motion of body that travels around another body in space?

The motion of a body that travels around another body in space is called orbiting or revolution. The body that is being orbited is typically much larger and exerts a gravitational force that keeps the orbiting body in motion around it. This motion follows a specific path determined by the balance between the gravitational force and the velocity of the orbiting body.

What do you call a small space rock while it is orbiting in space much larger and it would be an asteroid?

A rock. If it hits the Earth's atmosphere and we see it, it will be a "meteor". When it lands on the Earth, it will be a "meteorite".

One space body circling another?

A space body circling another is typically referred to as a satellite. This can be a natural satellite, like the Moon orbiting Earth, or an artificial satellite, such as the International Space Station. The gravitational pull of the larger body keeps the smaller body in orbit, balancing the centripetal force with gravitational attraction. This relationship is crucial for various scientific, communication, and navigational purposes.


What is gene body?

The Gene body is defined as an entire gene from the transcription start site to the end of the transcript.


Is there force in space?

No; gravity will continue acting on your body. If there was no force acting on your body while in space (let's say an orbiting satellite), the satellite would fly out of Earth's orbit and just wander off forever, but that doesn't happen - so gravity has to be acting on the satellite and your body as well!


Can you change space suits in space?

No, not while outside the space craft. The vaccum outside would cause all the gasses in your body to boil, the extreme cold would freeze dry you, and not to mention the tiny particles of space junk orbiting earth at a thousand miles an hour would punch straight through you. -Jack
