Man, I don't know!
The Space Station and Shuttle astronauts keep Houston time, and sleep when it's night time in Texas. In the old Soviet-era Mir space station, the cosmonauts kept Moscow time. However, I believe that like ships, the ISS and Shuttle astronauts keep "watches", so that someone is awake at all times.

The shuttle astronauts carry some of the water needed for themselves and also deliver water to the International Space Station. Over a year 2200 liters are transported at a cost of $US11000 per liter. The ISS also has a Russian built device that processes the humidity in the air and condenses it for drinking and other purposes. On the shuttle, water is produced as a byproduct of the orbiter's fuel cells converting hydrogen and oxygen to electricity. Because of the massive cost of transporting water, NASA is working on a system that converts many of the astronauts' body fluids - and, yes, that includes urine - into drinkable water. See the Related Link below for the interesting details.

The American Skylab was the first space station put into space. It remained in Earth orbit from 1973 to 1979 and was visited by crews three times between 1973 and 1974.
Yes, reaction time can be affected in space due to changes in gravity, sensory input, and orientation. Astronauts may experience slower reaction times initially as their bodies adjust to the microgravity environment. However, with training and adaptation, they can improve their reaction times to perform effectively in space missions.
It is important for an astronaut to have acceptable visual and auditory reactions because anything can happen when in space. They need to be able to quickly assess the situation and react appropriately.
Yes, mood can affect reaction time. Positive moods tend to improve reaction times, while negative moods can slow down reaction times. Emotions such as stress, anxiety, and anger can also impact reaction times negatively.
Yes, astronauts do need to do laundry in space. They typically wear their clothes multiple times before changing them and then use specialized equipment like a space washing machine to clean their clothes. Water is recycled and used for laundry to conserve resources on the space station.
Caffeine increases the reaction time to visual and auditory stimuli
Ot can temporarily slow them somewhat.
Astronauts currently work in six month shifts on the international space station. A single astronaut might fly only once in his career. Others, however, have flown as many as five or six times! (Astronaut training is expensive.)
None. The Space shuttle has never come close to the Moon, let alone land on it.
During a rocket launch, astronauts can experience up to 3-4 times the force of gravity (3-4G) depending on the rocket and mission profile. Once the rocket reaches outer space and escapes Earth's gravity, astronauts experience microgravity, where they feel weightless and are in free fall around the Earth.
Research suggests that there is a small difference in reaction times between genders, with males typically having faster reaction times than females due to biological factors such as muscle mass and nerve conduction speed. However, individual differences within each gender can be more significant than differences between genders.
As age of man increases so his reaction times slow.
A reusable craft that transports people to and from space is a space shuttle or a space capsule. These vehicles are designed to withstand the harsh conditions of space travel and safely carry astronauts to and from space missions. They can be launched into space multiple times, making them cost-effective and environmentally friendly options for space travel.
