The force of gravity decreases with the distance between bodies, but it is still about 90% of the sea level value in high Earth orbit. There zero gravity exists because of the "free fall" of the orbit. At some point several thousand miles from Earth, the attraction from the Earth or the Moon does become very small, creating virtual weightlessness.

Gravity is inversely proportional to the distance from the center of mass, which is why on the Earth's surface the effect of the Sun's gravity (which is much greater) is negligible compared to that of the Earth.

How much does an astronaut make when he goes to the ISSi?

Astronaut salaries vary based on their experience and position within the space agency. NASA astronauts, for example, typically earn between $66,000 and $144,000 annually, depending on their grade level. However, this salary does not significantly change during missions to the International Space Station (ISS), as they continue to receive their regular pay while in space. Other space agencies may have different pay scales, but the overall compensation structure is generally similar.

How does Gravity affect astronouts in space?

Gravity from objects such as the Earth, the Moon, the Sun, or the Milky Way will attract and accelerate an astronaut. "Accelerate" implies that the astronaut's velocity will change over time.If the astronaut is in free fall (basically, the spaceship's engine is not pushing the spacecraft), then the astronaut won't FEEL such gravity.


What is the astronaut inertia on the moon?

The astronaut's inertia on the moon would be the same as on Earth, as inertia is an object's resistance to a change in motion. However, due to the moon's lower gravity, the astronaut would weigh less and experience a reduced force opposing their motion compared to Earth.

What is the mass of an astronaut on earth?

The mass of an astronaut on Earth would be the same as their mass in space. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and does not change with location. It is the weight of the astronaut that would vary depending on the gravitational force acting on them.
