Why don't space shuttle astronaut in orbit hit their heads on the ceiling of the falling shuttle?
Space shuttle astronauts in orbit do not hit their heads on the ceiling because they are in a state of free fall, experiencing microgravity. In this condition, both the astronauts and the shuttle are falling towards Earth at the same rate, creating the sensation of weightlessness. As a result, they float inside the shuttle and are not subject to the forces that would normally cause them to collide with surfaces.
What is it look like inside a space shuttle?
The interior of a space shuttle consists of various sections, including the flight deck where astronauts pilot the shuttle, the mid-deck where crew can eat and sleep, and the payload bay where experiments and satellites are stored. The space shuttle is a complex spacecraft with multiple compartments designed to accommodate astronauts and carry out missions in space.
What is the possessive form of suits of those astronauts?
The possessive form is 'those astronaut'ssuits'.
Should astronauts choose pencils with hard or soft head for making notes in space?
Astronauts should use pencils with hard heads in space to prevent the accumulation of graphite dust, which can be risky in a microgravity environment. Hard-headed pencils create less residue when writing, reducing the chances of it floating around and causing problems with equipment.
Why does shuttle rotate on take-off?
As we explained in two earlier questions about max q, or maximum dynamic pressure, the Shuttle reaches a point about one minute after launch when the pressure force of the atmosphere rushing past the rapidly accelerating rocket reaches a peak. The roll maneuver is performed shortly before max q is reached because this "heads-down" orientation helps alleviate the stresses that the dynamic pressure loads cause on the vehicle's structure. The second factor we need to consider is that for each mission, the Shuttle must launch at a certain azimuth angle in order to be inserted into the correct orbital plane. Since the launch pad (and therefore the Shuttle) sits in a fixed position, the Shuttle must perform a roll maneuver during ascent in order to orient itself to achieve the desired launch azimuth angle. If it were possible to rotate the launch pad prior to launch, the pad could simply be rotated to accomodate the launch azimuth angle, and the Shuttle could launch into a heads-down orientation while gradually pitching over during ascent. Finally, the Shuttle orbits such that its cargo bay faces towards the Earth. The heads-down position assists in communications with the ground and allows instruments within the cargo bay to be pointed back towards Earth, which is required for many of the experiments carried within the bay. There is probably also some psychological benefit to the crew since they are given spectacular views of home rather than staring into the cold darkness of the great void of space.- answer by Aaron Brown, 8 June 2003 The above answer was found on the internet using google on September 25, 2008, by Eduardo Linares Batres elinaresbatres@gmail.com

A person is standing still away from a shuttle launch site. As the shuttle heads towards space the shuttle is getting smaller. What happens to the shadow of the shuttle?
Disappears.
What happens when Astronauts run out of Oxygen?

Where would you find a Snoopy cap?
Snoopy caps are worn on the heads of astronauts as part of their spacesuits.
Is the thing the astronauts where on their heads called a helmet?
Yes, albeit a very very expensive one.
