Nothing 'floats' in outer space. Objects are in freefall.
Floating implies there is something to provide buoyancy, this is not so in space. Space is the absence of matter.
it takes 1 half of a quart of gas for a 10 ton space ship to reach outer space
they burn 1/2 a ton of fuel a second
Nobody, the first rocket to enter space was the German V-2 in WW2 which was an unmanned ballistic missile designed to carry a 1 ton explosive warhead.
Shuttle commander Lee Archambault is slated to dock his 100-ton spacecraft at the station at 5:13 p.m. EDT
Skylab was the first space station the United States launched into orbit, and the second space station ever visited by a human crew. Skylab was also the only space station NASA or the United States military launched alone. The 100 ton space station was in Earth's orbit from 1973 to 1979, and it was visited by crews three times in 1973 and 1974. It included a laboratory for studying the effects of microgravity and the Apollo Telescope Mount solar observatory. It was launched as a docking station for space crafts and as an observatory for the goings on in space.

One metric ton of feathers will have a much larger volume than a ton of steel ingots.
Yes you can. If the object is one cubic meter in volume and it has a mass of less than one metric ton it should float in fresh water.
A ton of brings does not exist, but if you mean a ton of bricks or a ton of feathers, they both weigh the same - 2000lbs. A ton is an imperial unit of measuring weight - it doesn't measure volume (or space that on object takes up). A ton of bricks would be relatively compact, while a ton of feathers would take up an enormous amount of space.
1 ton, but I don't know whether that's a short ton or a long ton. A cubic ton is a measurement of volume (i.e. how much space it takes up). A cubic ton of sand is how much space a ton of sand takes up. A cubic ton of timber is how much space a ton of timber takes up, and as timber is lighter than sand, a cubic ton of timber is larger than a cubic ton of sand, even though they both weigh the same. As for the volume of a cubic ton of sand, I have no idea. You could get a rough answer this way: "m" divided by "d" where m =one ton in whatever units you are using (e.g. kg) and d = density of sand (in the same units)
depends what is in the space zero ton if the meter cube are empty
The convolutions in the cerebrum increase surface area
One ton is a unit of weight. Square Feet is a unit of space. You cannot convert the two without knowing more information such as a tone of what will cover such and such square feet, a ton of insulation will cover this much square feet to this depth. etc...
well... that depends. A 'tonne' is the same thing as a ton. A ton is a weight, and a yard is distance. I guess you could spread crushed granite out and see how much space it takes up but... there's really no definite answer.
