Who is in charge of speaking to the astronauts in the Mission Control Center?
The Capcom is the only person who speaks directly to the astronauts on a regular basis. The Capcom is always a member of the astronaut corps, and often has worked as a back-up on the mission. On occasion, others may speak with the astronauts by arrangement. For example, the families, the NASA director, or the President may have short times allocated to pass messages to the astronauts.
What are the people called that are in charge of the space flight?
The people in charge of space flight are often referred to as astronauts, cosmonauts, or taikonauts, depending on their country of origin. They are trained professionals who operate spacecraft and conduct missions in space.
Why do you think scientists are concerned that static electricity will be much bigger problem for astronauts than it is for people here on earth?
Scientists are concerned that static electricity will be a bigger problem for astronauts because in space there is no atmosphere to dissipate built-up charge, leading to higher levels of static electricity. This can create issues with sensitive equipment, affect communication systems, and even pose a risk of sparks in a high-oxygen environment. Astronauts in spacesuits can build up static charges that may interfere with electronic devices or even pose a risk to the astronauts themselves.
Who was in charge of NASA at the time of Apollo 13?
At the time of the Apollo 13 mission, which launched on April 11, 1970, NASA was under the leadership of Administrator Thomas O. Paine. The mission faced a critical situation when an oxygen tank exploded, leading to a significant crisis. Flight Director Gene Kranz played a pivotal role in managing the situation during the mission, ensuring the safe return of the astronauts.
If you were in charge of the space program what would your priorities be why?

In the future as astronauts walk across the martian suface they will acquire a static charge?
Yes, due to the lack of atmosphere and moisture on Mars, astronauts walking on the surface may accumulate a static charge similar to what can happen on Earth. This could potentially lead to issues with equipment malfunctions or dust clinging to their suits. Precautions will need to be taken to mitigate these risks.
What happens when an electron is added to an atom it will acquire?
when an electron is added to an atom, the atom will acquire a negative charge.
What possible charge can iron acquire as an ion?
Iron can acquire a charge of +2 or +3 as an ion. The +2 charge is more common and is known as ferrous ion, while the +3 charge is less common and is known as ferric ion.
What charge does a lightning acquire?
A bolt of lightning is almost pure electrons ... so the charge is negative.
What charge does fluorine acquire when making an ion?
fluorine ion has a charge of -1, it has an extra elctron
What charge does sodium acquire when making an ion?
It gains a positive charge, generally being 1+
Suppose you acquire a positive charge from walking across a carpet. You then touch a doorknob and receive a shock. This leaves you .?
electrically neutral :)
How does a material acquire a positive electric charge?
By losing electrons.
Why do elements acquire positive charge on gaining electrons?
They do not. An electron is negatively charged and an atom can only acquire a negative charge on gaining electrons.
When an object loses electrons it acquires an electric charge of?
It does not acquire any charge, it looses negative charge (the electrons), so becomes net positive.
Explain How electrically neutral objects can become electrically charge even though charge Cannot be created or destroyed.?
They acquire a charge from somewhere else.
What possible charge can lead acquire as an ion?
Lead can form ions with a charge of +2 or +4.
