What else can I help you with?
Do you weigh less on earth than in a space ship orbiting 800 kilometers above earth?
No - more on Earth - in orbit you're weightless.
The statement that astronauts on the Moon are weightless is?
The statement that astronauts on the Moon are weightless is true.
What are the 4 most known spacecrafts?
The four most well-known spacecraft are probably Apollo 11 (for the moon landing), Voyager 1 (interstellar probe), the Space Shuttle (NASA's reusable spacecraft), and the International Space Station (orbiting laboratory).
Where does an astronaut start to feel weightless?
when the rockets stop firing, astronauts begin free fall (weightless).
What rocket launched the Apollo spacecrafts that begins with the letter t?
The rocket that launched the Apollo spacecrafts was the Saturn V. There were no Apollo rockets that began with a T
Why do astronauts appear to be weightless in a spacecraft orbiting earth?
Free fall
Does mercury have any satellites or robot?
it has neither. also there are no man made orbiting spacecrafts.
Would a person orbiting earth in a spaceship feel lighter?
Yes. In fact they would feel weightless.
Do you weigh less on earth than in a space ship orbiting 800 kilometers above earth?
No - more on Earth - in orbit you're weightless.
Why do you not feel weightless if flying in a large airplane at a high altitute but if you were in an orbiting spacecraft you would constantly feel weightless?
In an airplane, you are still affected by Earth's gravity as the plane is flying against the pull of gravity, creating lift and keeping you pressed down towards the floor. In an orbiting spacecraft, you are in free fall around Earth, so you and the spacecraft are falling towards Earth at the same rate hence you experience weightlessness.
Why an object becomes weightless in outer spaceaway from any planet or star?
Gravitational forces are much reduced by distance. Also, they would be fairly well balanced in all directions. However, there would probably still be some detectable gravitational force. The other definition of "weightless" is when an object is still in a gravitational field, but in "free fall". That's why astronauts orbiting Earth are "weightless".
What is a situation in which an object is weightless?
An object is weightless when it is in free fall, such as when an astronaut is orbiting the Earth in the International Space Station. In this situation, the object is technically still affected by gravity but experiences a sensation of weightlessness because it is falling at the same rate as its surroundings.
What are the four us spacecrafts that have been sent to mercury?
You seem to be misinformed. The first US spacecraft was Mariner 10. This was followed by Messenger. There have not been others.
When did they discover spacecrafts on Venus?
Although several spacecrafts have been sent to Venus, no alien spacecrafts have been discovered on its surface.
What is weightless but you can see it and?
A shadow is something that is weightless but can be seen.
Is cotton wool weightless?
No. It is light -- not heavy, but it is not weightless.
When is something weightless?
Something is weightless when there are no gravitational forces acting upon it.
