"Free fall" means that an object falls only under the influence of gravity; specifically, air resistance can be ignored. An open parachute does not normally fall in this category.

free falling is whena gravity is pulling a object or anything down and no other forces are acting on it.


Why isn't an astronaut in our solar system in zero gravity?

An astronaut can never be in zero gravity in our solar system, because there is gravity (usually) from the Earth, and always from the Sun. It is important to distinguish weightlessness from zero gravity. Weightlessness occurs in a gravity environment in which the person is freefalling, hopefully in orbit. In a freefall condition, there is no friction to retard your fall, so you feel nothing pressing against you, and thus you feel weightless..When in orbit around the Earth, an astronaut is in freefall, and is therefore weightless, but there is still gravity. When travelling between the Earth to the Moon, the astronaut is still in orbit around the Sun, and is therefore freefalling weightlessly.
