Is the space station pressurized?

Yes, the International Space Station is pressurized to provide a habitable environment for astronauts. Maintaining a controlled air pressure allows astronauts to breathe, move around, and work safely inside the station.


How does the space station not run out of air?

The International Space Station generates oxygen through electrolysis, which splits water into oxygen and hydrogen. Carbon dioxide is removed from the air by a system called the Carbon Dioxide Removal Assembly, which uses a chemical sorbent to trap carbon dioxide. These systems work together to maintain the air supply on the space station.


What would happen if you tried to light matches in the International Space Station?

Think. When you light a match. fire occurs. For fire to breath it needs oxygen(air).Is there oxygen in the International Space Station? Is the International Space Station in space? Is there air in Space? If you look at the pictures of the interior if the ISS, the astronauts do not wear oxtgen masks, so yes, there must be oxygen in the ISS, and therefore matches should light. What i want to know is that because of the lack of gravity, does the flame extend in all directions, or does the hot air (i.e. flame) still rise as on earth?


How do the astronauts train for a space mission to the International Space Station?

Astronauts train for a space mission to the International Space Station by undergoing simulations of spacewalks, living in confined spaces, using the station's robotic arm, operating spacecraft systems, and conducting scientific experiments. They also train in underwater environments to simulate the weightlessness of space and work closely with their crewmates to prepare for the mission.


Can you hear the International Space Station pass overhead if all everything else around is still and quite?

Sound needs a volume to travel in. Space happens to be a vacuum, so said volume is not there. Sound cannot travel in space because of this. If sound cannot travel through space, it is not going to reach Earth. So, no.

What do astronuats wear?

This depends upon where the astronaut is. Inside the International Space Station, astronauts usually wear light, informal clothing. If the astronaut exits the station to do a space walk or other such mission, the astronaut will wear an air tight space suit, in order to be able to continue breathing.

How do you cool space station?

! How is the Space Station Cooled? Well everything we put into space we take with us. Even Air. Air is filtered through an Air Conditioning unit on the I.S.S probably similar to one on a home or Apt complex.


Which algae is used in space flights to purify the air in spaceships?

None are, currently. To use the International Space Station as an example, CO2 is removed by a zeolite filter and other waste gases are absorbed by activated charcoal.


International space station orbits the air in an approximately circular orbit at a high 375 km above the earth surface in one complete orbit is the work done by the earth on the space station positive?

No, the work done by the Earth on the space station is not positive. The gravitational force between the Earth and the space station acts towards the center of the Earth, which is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the space station. Therefore, the work done by the Earth on the space station is zero because the force and displacement are perpendicular to each other.


What atmosphere is the international space station in?

above the msosphere and below the exosphere sumwhere around there Its orbit is in the thermosphere which is approximately at a altitude of 300km. it is above the mesosphere and below the exosphere.
