Can astrounuts walk on a Meteorite?

You don't have to be an astronaut to walk on a meteorite. A meteorite is a piece of rock or metal from space that has fallen to Earth, so anyone who can walk could potentially walk or step on a meteorite. Such a piece of rock or metal in space is called a meteoroid or asteroid depending on the size. Even the largest asteroids have much weaker gravity than Earth does, so walking would be difficult if not impossible as a single step could launch you at least several feet off the ground.


What might happen if an astronaut floating in space moved the north poles of two magnets together and let them go?

The result would be the same as on Earth (except in 3D). Something different would happen (i) if the astronaut let go of one magnet before the other or (ii) if there were two astronauts, with one magnet each. (In space, the astronaut could spin, as well (except much more slowly).)
