There's no reason why almost any process that does work in air on Earth

can't also be done in space in vacuum. One example: The operation of

inserting an artificial satellite into orbit certainly involves a lot of forces

acting through a lot of distances, to get the satellite moving just right.

Any time you see a rocket engine burning with fire coming out the end,

the force of the engine is acting on the space vehicle as it moves through

some distance. And (force) x (distance) = Work .

Work is done when?

work= force × distance so if an object moves 4metres, and the force to move it is 2N, (Newtons) the work done would be 4 × 2 = 8Joules (Work is measured in Joules) In other words, work is done when an object moves a certain distance when a certain amount of force is applied to it.
