What else can I help you with?
How do you get taller in space?
There is gravity on earth so body gets compressed a little; so in space no gravity means people are taller
What force acts on space time?
Certainly it appears that gravity does so.
How is being in water like being in space?
Being in water means that there is very little gravity, just like space. For example, if you stood in a pool and lifted your legs up, you could stay there for much longer than if you did out of water. In space there is no gravity and so by being in water, which has very little gravity, it has the same affect as being in space.
What is the condition called when you feel weightlessness in space.?
The condition is called microgravity. It occurs when there is very little gravity affecting the body, such as in space or during free-fall.
Is there gravity between earth and the space shuttle as it orbits earth?
Yes, there is the force of gravity when the Space Shuttle is in space. The Earth's gravity is a force which continues throughout space, however diminishing as it travels further out (similar to the suns light traveling throughout space). A good example of the gravity's force in space would be the tool bag lost on a spacewalk which fell back to Earth. Also, the gravity in space seems much less due to the fact there is very little to no atmosphere weighing on the space craft (depending on altitude). On Earth atmosphere at sea level ways 14.7 pounds per square inch and gets lighter as you climb.

Why you flot in space?
Gravity, when we are on or near the Earth's surface, keeps our feet firmly on the ground. Out into space, there is so little gravity than we can float.
How is underwater training similar to the experience that astronsouts will have in space?
water is similar to outer space because it has little gravity so astronomers use it to practice in it to get ready for outer space.
Why is there so much gravity in blackholes but so little gravity in space?
Black holes are the dead remnants of super massive stars that have collapsed in on them selves. The nuclear force that counteracts gravity is no longer present and gravity takes over. The mass is squeezed into an infinitesimally space which deforms the fabric of space so much that anything venturing into the event horizon is lost forever. Interplanetary or interstellar space has no gravity because there is no mass exerting a gravitational force on anything.A2 Remember, gravity is a property of Mass (matter). No mass, no gravity.A black hole has absorbed huge quantities of matter, therefore huge gravity.
What is gravity distortion?
Gravity bends space, and because light travels through space gravity distorts light. Actually, gravity warps spacetime, so just as space is bent, so is time. Gravity thus distorts both space and time.
Is there more gravity on earth than on space?
All objects have gravitational pull - so the theory of matter would say, of course, unless the object is so large like the Earth or Moon, it is undetectable. So gravity is not just on Earth, it is a universal thing. Of course, there is nothing that could have gravity in space other that planets etc., so unless you where close to one you would not feel any gravity. Now to answer your question. It could go either way. You could say that the farther you get from Earth, the less gravity there is. So space, you would assume, would not have much at all. But if you were close to a planet like Jupiter, which has 2.5 times the gravity as Earth, you would feel more gravity than here on Earth. Does this answer your question? If not, try this: Gravity is related to mass. Mass is the weight of an object. The greater the mass, the greater the gravity. Space has little mass and therefore little gravity. The moon is about 1/3 the size of the Earth, therefore it would have about 1/3 the gravity.
Can gravity shift in space?
If you are travelling in space, you would be changing your relative distance from various gravitational fields, so yes, gravity can shift in space.
Why is it important for astronaunts to exercise before launch?
in space there is very little resistance from lack of gravity so they get literally no exercise in space and they can lose muscle mass and bone density. also space suits are hard to move in.
Does space have more or less gravity than earth?
Space itself does not have gravity, as gravity is a force produced by mass. In space, the gravity experienced depends on the mass of nearby objects, such as planets or stars. If you are far away from any massive objects, you would experience very little gravity, while being close to a massive object would result in stronger gravity.
Are astronauts weight less in space?
Yes weight changes due to gravity and mass is constant in terms of gravity. There is less gravity in space than the earth so they would weigh less but their mass would be the same. They have less gravity pulling on them, so yes. Unless they have artificial gravity creators in or on the space ship that I don't know about.
Do you float in space?
No, you do not float in space. In space, there is no gravity to pull you down, so you would float freely.
Do planets sail off into space due to gravity?
No; in fact, gravity is what keeps them from doing so.
