Gravity on the International Space Station is created by its continuous free fall towards Earth, which gives the sensation of weightlessness to the astronauts onboard. As the station orbits around the Earth, it falls towards the planet due to gravity but moves forward fast enough to miss it, essentially making it in a state of perpetual free fall.
The International Date Line follows the 180th meridian to prevent dividing countries into two different calendar days. It bends around certain territories and islands to ensure that each country remains within a single day. This results in the International Date Line not being a straight line.
Many astronauts, cosmonauts, and specialists have lived and worked quitesuccessfully for months at a time on the International Space Station, invirtually zero gravity.
I'm not sure if it's ever measured, but it could be approximated by calculating the surface gravity of a spherical asteroid of equal mass and dimensions.Assuming the mass of the International Space Station is 450 000 kg (M) and its mean radius is about 30 meters (r) , the surface gravity would be g = MG/r2 = about 0,00000003337 m/s2 (about 30 nanometers/square second).For comparison, Earth's surface gravity is about 9.81 m/s2, so the gravity you would experience standing on the surface of the International Space Station is about 0.3 millionth of a percent compared to earth. It's certainly too small a gravity to hold you attached to the station if you were standing on it.If you're inside the space station, in the center of the station, there is zero gravity because you are in the center of gravity because the mass of the station is situated around you.Panu, M.Sc.
If he is aboard something that's in Earth-orbit, like the International Space Station or the Space Shuttle, then Earth's gravity is what's keeping him in orbit.
The international dateline has normal gravity; our time zone conventions have no effect on the gravity of the planet Earth.
International Dateline Hotel was created in 1966.
The International Dateline passes through the Pacific and Southern Oceans.
