Most clocks work fine in space.

The mechanical manual-wind wristwatches worn by space-walking astronauts work just fine strapped to the outside of the wrist of the spacesuit, in the vacuum of space.

The atomic clock in each GPS satellite works just fine.

While we haven't bothered actually testing, it seems likely that pendulum and water clocks would not work in space, because of the lack of gravity.

Can I still buy a simple clock radio?

Yes of course you can still buy a simple clock radio, despite so much consumer demand for higher technological products. In fact, most producers of technology items still continue to produce a simple clock radio and understandably they are very inexpensive. It is nice that these companies still recognize that some people just want an alarm clock to wake them up every day to go to work.


Do forces work in space?

Yes, forces such as gravity still work in space. Objects in space are subject to gravitational forces from other objects, such as planets and stars. Additionally, forces can be generated by propulsion systems to move spacecraft and satellites in space.
