the answer is simple there is more, lots, lots more in the unknown universe that we have still to learn. what is at the earths core? what does pluto's surface look like?
you get the idea

They are still called astronauts.
Yes, NASA is still sending astronauts into space through their partnership with private companies like SpaceX. They use the Crew Dragon spacecraft to transport astronauts to the International Space Station.
Most astronauts have to go to the hospital anyways for a check up before they leave for space. Some astronauts get hurt or injured n space and may need to get tothe hospital when they return. When astronauts get back they have an examination too. Astronauts are highly trained, but they are still human and can get sick or injured like anyone else.
i think not because astronouts dont go to space no more.
No, a space station is a large artificial structure in space where astronauts live and work for extended periods of time, while a space shuttle is a spacecraft that is used to transport astronauts and cargo to and from space. Space shuttles have been retired by NASA, while space stations like the ISS are still operational.
A lot of astronauts have served on the International Space Station. Supplies of food and other necessities are brought for the astronauts. As the space station is still undergoing construction, additional parts and modules are brought up to it. A lot of experiments are done on it, so equipment and necessary materials to conduct those experiments are brought to the space station.
Astronauts in space are subject to the same laws that they would be in their home countries on earth, and they are still subject to the rules of the organization that put them there.
We Can Still Be Astronauts - 2010 was released on: USA: July 2010
Astronauts appear weightless in space because they are in a state of free fall, orbiting the Earth along with their spacecraft. This creates a condition known as microgravity, where both the astronauts and the spacecraft are falling towards Earth at the same rate, resulting in the sensation of weightlessness. Although gravity is still present, the lack of a solid surface to push against leads to this floating experience.
Yes, as of October 2023, there are still astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The ISS is continuously inhabited, with crew members conducting scientific research and various experiments in microgravity. The crew typically rotates every few months, so there are ongoing missions to bring new astronauts to the station and return others to Earth.
Space helmets have gold visors to protect astronauts' eyes from harmful radiation and intense sunlight in outer space. The gold coating helps to reflect and filter out these damaging rays while still allowing enough visibility for the astronauts to see clearly.
