Do they have oxygen in space?

While space itself does not have oxygen, astronauts have access to oxygen on space missions through systems that generate and regulate the supply of breathable air. This is necessary for them to survive in the vacuum of space.


Why do you have to wear space uniforms in space?

Space uniforms, or spacesuits, protect astronauts from the harsh environment of space. They provide oxygen, regulate temperature, shield from radiation, and serve as a safety measure in case of emergencies like loss of cabin pressure. Without these suits, astronauts would not be able to survive in the vacuum and extreme conditions of space.


Whats in outer space instead of oxygen?

Outer space is a vacuum, which means it is mostly empty of matter, including oxygen. Instead, outer space contains elements such as hydrogen and helium, cosmic dust, and various forms of radiation. It is the absence of atmosphere that makes it challenging for humans to survive without life support systems.
