You need gravity to stay in bed, but you don't need it to sleep. In microgravity or
weightlessness, once you get used to the feeling of always falling, you can sleep
quite nicely. It's wise, though, to arrange some sort of restraint, just so you don't
go floating around the whole crew quarters every time you turn over. So the crew
of the bygone Space Shuttle, for example, or the International Space Station, just
slip into their bags, which are loosely tied or buckled to the wall/floor/ceiling, and
drift off.
What else can I help you with?
What factors affect the amount of gravity between two celestial objects in space?
Not only in space - gravity is universal. The force of gravity is affected by the distance, and by the masses involved.
Would there be gravity on a space ship in open space moving at high speeds and if so in what direction would it move?
Yes, there would still be gravity on a spaceship in open space due to the ship's acceleration creating a force similar to gravity. The direction of this artificial gravity would be towards the floor of the spaceship, simulating the gravitational pull we experience on Earth.
What happens if we throw a ball in space?
The ball will not be affected by drag. Only gravity will affect its trajectory.
How is gravity created on space shuttle?
There is no gravity in a space shuttle, unless its on the ground. The technology of "Gravity Coils" which generate artificial gravity has not been developed. Inducing a feeling of gravity like the old scifi movies "big wheel" space stations only works for very large structures
What is the only opposing force that affects two docking space stations?
The only opposing force that affects two docking space stations is the force of gravity between the stations, which can cause them to drift apart. Other forces such as magnetic or electrical forces are typically negligible in this scenario.
Is there an object affected by only gravity?
Yes, there is an object affected by only gravity. Stars and other floating space debris are only affected by gravity in space, as long as the objects do not touch each other.
How do you do zero gravity levation?
You can only do that in outer space.
What factors affect the amount of gravity between two celestial objects in space?
Not only in space - gravity is universal. The force of gravity is affected by the distance, and by the masses involved.
Does Saturn hve only 110 percent of gravity on Saturn?
Saturn has precisely 100.0% of gravity on Saturn.
Does volume percent equal w percent?
No. Only if the two components have the same density (specific gravity), which is highly unlikely.
Is there a curvature to space?
Yes, caused by gravity. (only works on the very large scale because gravity is very weak.)
Can astronauts walk in space or only on the moon etc?
they cant walk in space because there is no gravity they are just floating
Do you float up in space?
No Up or down only depends on gravity. In space there is no gravity. Though if you push off from something then you will keep going for ever as there is nothing to slow or stop you.
What is the meaning of free fall and gravity?
without gravity there can be no free fall. The only time humans have eperienced free fall is within a space craft where gravity is regulated.
If there was no gravity why do people say there would be no oxygen?
Gravity holds things down to Earth (or any other body in space). The oxygen only stays on earth because of this gravity. Without gravity, oxygen and our whole atmosphere would just disperse and float off into space.
How did slaves sleep on the slave ships?
they either sleep spoon ways which has no space to breath or loose packed were ther's space they would only be loose packed if only the captain wants more slaves to survive to make a profit.
