The International Space Station (ISS) keeps people alive through a combination of life support systems that provide essential resources. It recycles air and water, removing carbon dioxide and purifying waste water to ensure a breathable atmosphere and safe drinking water. Additionally, it relies on solar panels for power, and the onboard systems regulate temperature and humidity to create a habitable environment. Regular resupply missions also bring food and other necessities to sustain the crew.

How do the astronauts keep warm in the space station?

Astronauts on the space station have a controlled climate with heating systems to regulate temperature. They also wear special clothing that helps to maintain their body heat. Additionally, the station has insulation to minimize heat loss.


What do they do in the space station?

In a space station, astronauts conduct experiments, research microgravity effects on the human body, test new technologies, observe Earth from a unique perspective, and perform maintenance tasks to keep the station operational. They also exercise to combat muscle and bone loss caused by extended time in microgravity.


What happens during a space walk does the International Space Station stop or it continues at the same speed?

The space station continues at the same speed. The spacewalker will also travel at the same speed. Their relative speed however will be near zero however because they are travelling together. In effect their is no real way for a spacecraft to speed up or slow down without changing its orbit.


What do astronaut beds look like?

Since there is no gravity to hold astronauts in their beds they have to sleep in zipped up sleeping bags that are strapped to the inside of the space station, space shuttle or whatever they are in.


How do people sleep in space?

Astronauts sleep in sleeping bags that are attached to walls, floors, or ceilings in space capsules or onboard the International Space Station. They may use straps or Velcro to hold themselves in place since there is no gravity to keep them from floating around. Eye masks and earplugs can also help block out light and noise in the microgravity environment.

Why doesn't a space station have any moons?

Compared to a planet a space station is tiny. While all objects with mass gave gravity, that of a space station is negligible, and certainly could not keep a moon in orbit.


How do astronauts work on the Space Station without drifting into space?

The astronauts wear tethers whenever they exit the space station so that they remain attached to the station. Otherwise, without sufficient gravity to keep them close by, they could easily drift away into space.


How do you think people living on board the space station will keep them from getting board?

They have projects to do and to make sure all systems are working correctly. This keeps them busy.


What temp do they keep the space station on the inside?

65 deegree celsius or 149 Fahrenheit


How do volcanoes keep us alive?

Volcanoes do not keep us alive. Many thousands of people have died in volcanic eruptions.


Why are space suits required for space walks?

To provide a pressurized environment and oxygen to keep the astronauts alive, as well as regulating temperature.


How do you keep fit on the International Space Station?

you have to constantly exercise your diaphragm and cardiovasular system...they have bikes and treadmills ect.


Do people in space jog on the moon to keep fit?

no
