Oxygen is held close to Earth by gravity, which creates a force that pulls gases toward the planet's surface. The Earth's atmosphere acts as a protective barrier that helps keep oxygen from escaping into space. Additionally, the planet's magnetic field also helps to shield the atmosphere from the solar wind that could strip away gases.
What else can I help you with?
How is oxygen produced in space?
There is no oxygen in space. The oxygen in space stations is created through a process called electrolysis, which uses energy from solar panels to split water (H2O) into hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen gas (O2).
Why is liquid oxygen used in space shuttles?
Liquid oxygen is used in space shuttles as an oxidizer for the spacecraft's fuel, typically liquid hydrogen. When mixed and ignited, liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen create a powerful and efficient chemical reaction that generates the necessary thrust for the shuttle to break free of Earth's gravity and enter space. It is a highly efficient and reliable propellant choice for space missions.
Why do you need oxygen in space to make fire?
Fire needs oxygen no matter where it is. It is a chemical reaction between oxygen and some flammable substance. On Earth, the air is already 21% oxygen, so you only need to supply the fuel. In space there is no air and thus no oxygen, so you need to bring oxygen or some comparable oxidizer with you.
Will oxygen cans explode in space?
No, oxygen cans will not explode in space. They are designed to withstand fluctuations in pressure and temperature, so they are safe to use in space environments.
Why do spacecraft need internal oxygen supply?
Spacecraft need an internal oxygen supply to provide a breathable atmosphere for astronauts during space travel. Since there is no oxygen in space, spacecraft must carry their own supply to support human life. This ensures that astronauts have the necessary oxygen to breathe and carry out their activities while in space.
How does the moon float in space?
The moon orbits around the Earth due to gravitational force. Its motion is a balance between the pull of Earth's gravity and the moon's own inertia. This allows the moon to "float" in space without falling towards Earth.
If there was no gravity why do people say there would be no oxygen?
Gravity holds things down to Earth (or any other body in space). The oxygen only stays on earth because of this gravity. Without gravity, oxygen and our whole atmosphere would just disperse and float off into space.
What are the conditins in space?
Well, there is no gravity so you float around and there is no oxygen, that is why astronauts wear special suits when they go up there.
Why people do not fall of earth while astronomers float in space?
Gravity on earth lack of it in space
How people get in space?
Via a rocket. They are blasted up and then they float around a bit before coming back to earth.
What are the conditins like in space?
Well, there is no gravity so you float around and there is no oxygen, that is why astronauts wear special suits when they go up there.
Why does food float in space?
Because it is falling toward Earth at the same rate as everything around it. See Related Links, below.
Why don't all things on earth float away into space?
They don't float away because of gravity
Can you float around space with your space suit on and land on other planets?
No
What is the diffenerce of earth and space?
There is oxygen and gravitational force on earth but there is no oxygen and gravitational force
Why can't earth's oxygen travel through space?
Earth's atmosphere, including the oxygen, is bound to Earth by gravity.
Why do you do specific gravity what is its purpose?
because without gravity we would all float around and mabie float into space... It would kill us because without gravity we would all float around and mabie float into space... It would kill us
