Why did the men from Apollo 11 have to stay in an isolated chamber when they returned to earth?

The quarantine the astronauts were subjected to was due to fears (later proved unsubstantiated) that the astronauts would bring unknown pathogens from the Moon and that many people might fall sick from these foreign diseases.


Why might the astronauts feel a pang of regret upon returning to earth?

Astronauts might feel a pang of regret upon returning to Earth due to experiencing the "overview effect," a cognitive shift in awareness reported by some astronauts when viewing Earth from space. This profound experience can lead to a sense of interconnectedness and appreciation for the planet, making the return to Earth's complexities and challenges emotionally challenging. Additionally, astronauts may miss the unique perspective, freedom, and camaraderie of space missions, which can create a longing for the extraordinary experiences they had in space.


How did astronauts prepare for the Apollo 11 mission?

Astronauts for the Apollo 11 mission underwent extensive training in simulators to handle various scenarios they might encounter in space. They also studied the spacecraft systems and mission objectives in detail, practiced extravehicular activities, and participated in physical fitness training to prepare for the mission. Additionally, they received survival training in case they landed off course.


What might you smell in space?

There is no air in space, so there are no molecules to carry scents like we experience on Earth. Therefore, astronauts don't typically smell anything in the vacuum of space. Inside a spacecraft, astronauts may notice odors from items brought on board like food, equipment, or experiments.


Why did the Apollo space craft command and service modules stay and orbit around he moon?

There was a remote chance that a lunar lander might not be able to take off from the surface. Staying in orbit ensured that at least one of the crew had a good chance of returning in the event of a disaster.

Why didn't Apollo have a Roman name?

The Romans and Greeks passed their societies on peace and justice which Apollo is the god of. Also, Apollo was the patron god of Troy so they might have been honoring him by keeping his Greek name.


Did the first astronauts have space suits?

Yes, a pressure suit (otherwise known as a space suit) is a fundamental safety feature used on almost all space flights. The Soviets sent a few people up without one, but the United States requires that all its astronauts wear their pressure suit, including their helmet, during launch and reentry. The only U.S. crew that did not wear their helmets during reentry was the Apollo 7 crew. All 3 of them contracted severe head colds while in space. They felt their eardrums might burst due to sinus pressure if they had their helmets on during reentry. NASA administrators did not agree. None of the Apollo 7 astronauts ever flew again
