Why are astronauts unable to taste their food while eating in zero-gravity conditions?

Being able to smell the scent of food is what makes it tasty. Because of the low gravity in space, however, the scent of the food floats away before it reaches an astronaut's nose. Also, in space, liquid rises, and the mucus in an astronaut's nose rises, as well, giving the astronaut a permanently stuffed nose. Thus making astronauts unable to smell and therefore unable to taste the food they're eating.


What important role do the ions in the ionosphere play in making the use of technology possible?

They are being used by radio station to transmit signals from one station to another. Thanks to the property of ionized atmospheric gases to refract high frequency (HF, or shortwave) radio waves, the ionosphere can be utilized to "bounce" a transmitted signal down to ground


Does an astronaut have more mass on earth than in space?

No, mass is an inherent property of any material object and is a property of that object no matter where it is located. You need to separate in your mind the difference between MASS and WEIGHT. While the mass of an object will always remain the same no mater where it is, when you place that mass in a gravity field, the mass will WEIGH differently depending on how strong the pull of gravity on that mass is. (look in the related link below see how much a fixed mass would weigh on other planets). Thus when in orbit round the earth a mass will WEIGH nothing because when you are in orbit you are in free fall, there is no effective downward pull of gravity for the mass to experience.
