The capsules have several thrusters (rocket engines) attached to them to move the capsule. Capsules that are manned have a control panel inside the craft for the astronauts to control the turns and maneuvers of the craft. There are also unmanned capsules that have control panels off the craft that control it.

Astronauts wear space suits outside their spacecraft to protect themselves from the harsh conditions of space, including extreme temperatures, vacuum, and radiation. These suits provide life support by supplying oxygen and removing carbon dioxide, while also offering insulation and shielding from micrometeoroids and other debris. Additionally, space suits enable astronauts to maneuver and work effectively in a weightless environment.
Astronauts do not shower, they must sponge bath while they are in space.
Space suits: to protect astronauts from extreme temperatures, micrometeoroids, and provide oxygen. Extravehicular Mobility Units (EMUs): for spacewalks to enable astronauts to move and work outside the spacecraft. Tether systems: to keep astronauts connected to the spacecraft while working in space.
Apollo 1- a launch pad test resulted in a fire in the space capsule exacerbated by the fact that, at that time, NASA had a high oxygen atmosphere in space capsules, which greatly intensified the fire. The 3 astronauts in the capsule were killed, Grissom, White and Chaffee.They were the only Astronauts lost in the Apollo program.
Velcro and special handles are essential in space exploration to ensure that tools, equipment, and astronauts remain secure in a microgravity environment where objects can float away. For instance, Velcro is used to attach tools to the walls of spacecraft so they don't drift off during repairs or maintenance. Special handles are designed for astronauts to maneuver securely while conducting spacewalks or working outside the International Space Station. Additionally, these features help astronauts manage and stabilize themselves while performing tasks, enhancing safety and efficiency.
Astronauts can perform their space walk and move around as if nothing is happening while the space station is traveling at 17,500 miles per hour, because there is no gravity. This keeps them from feeling the fast speed.
Yes, astronauts wear specialized clothing while living and working inside the space station. They wear comfortable clothes for daily activities and special space suits for spacewalks or emergencies. These suits provide protection from extreme temperatures, radiation, and microgravity conditions.
No , but for astronauts visiting from other nations they do need passports to travel to the respective countries who are launching them into space e.g. the U.S. , Russia .
with bottles in the backpack of the astronaut. Actualy that was a stupid question...
