because both the astronaut and the satellite is attracted towards the center of the earth

The weightless astronaut landed on Mars, which has no gravity.
They do not. Astronauts in space are effectively weightless, so for them, there is no up or down; the idea of "upright" has no meaning.
No really. Political boundaries are not features that are marked out on the ground, so there is really nothing to see from Earth orbit.
False.Orbiting astronauts feel weightlessness since the gravitational pull of the Earth is balanced by the centrifugal force due to the circular orbital motion, which balance each other out since the spaceship is in orbit. That is, the weightlessness is because of no net force on the astronaut.In a nutshell, if you are orbiting, then irrespective of what height you're doing it, you'd be weightless.
No.
yes
Weightless
weightless
no they can weigh more or less depending which planets orbit

As there is no gravity in space, everything will float........... Because They're in free fall ........
Astronauts are weightless in space because there is no gravity in space. The lack of gravity is what allows them to float.
Weight is an expression of the gravitational force acting on an object. When the space shuttle is in orbit around the Earth, it is held there by the Earth's gravity. Since gravity is still acting on the shuttle and the astronauts inside, they still have weight. They are described as "weightless" because an object in orbit is in a constant state of free fall.
The statement that astronauts on the Moon are weightless is true.
The astronauts would experience weightlessness.
It makes astronauts weightless.
