The Astronauts use the Wet Trainer (a specially designed pool) at the Johnson Space Center in Houston which provides realistic zero gravity training. Prior to the Shuttle decommissioning, they used to use a realistic flight simulator for launch/reentry and emergency drills, as well as escape training at the launch pad at Kennedy Space Center. The Astronauts also use Engineering models of the equipment that they will use in space.
When any spacecraft or Astronaut tool is manufactured, there are several made. Some are built and qualified for ultimate manned flight and use in space; the others become engineering models, which are used for training and solving problems by engineers on Earth should something happen in space. They're also used by the Astronauts for training purposes.
They are built the same; the only difference is that they are not fully flight qualified, i.e., they haven't been fully inspected and tested to the rigorous requirements of spaceflight.
Astronauts use space shuttles( trasport people and equipment), Space probes (robotic exploration, Spacecrafts (trasport crew, equipment, and other technologies)
Astronauts sleep in a vertical position by strapping themselves into sleeping bags that are attached to the walls of they're sleeping compartment.
They use centrifical force machines to duplicate high G-forces. They train underwater to simulate weightlessness.
Astronauts use a torch in space primarily for visibility in dark areas, such as during spacewalks or inside spacecraft where lighting may be insufficient. The torch helps them inspect equipment, navigate, or perform repairs in low-light conditions. Since space is devoid of atmosphere, astronauts typically use torches designed for vacuum and extreme temperatures, ensuring reliability and safety during their missions.
they use normal exercise machines like the bike and bench press.But these things must be able to float in a way so not to damage the equipment on the outside of the craft.
No, it is independent of the military. It does use military people & equipment to assist. The first NASA astronauts were military pilots.

She wanted to major in astronautic as she dreamed of working with NASA.
Yes, NASA is still sending astronauts into space through their partnership with private companies like SpaceX. They use the Crew Dragon spacecraft to transport astronauts to the International Space Station.
Yes, the NASA temperature-sensitive material, also known as memory foam, was originally developed by NASA in the 1970s to improve seat cushioning and crash protection for astronauts during space missions.

NASA uses a wide range of equipment for space exploration, including spacecraft such as the Space Shuttle and the International Space Station, telescopes like the Hubble Space Telescope, robotic rovers like Curiosity on Mars, and various scientific instruments for studying space and celestial bodies. They also use specialized suits for astronauts, communication systems, and ground-based facilities for mission control and research.
Astronauts use a variety of specialized equipment in space, such as spacesuits for extravehicular activities, helmets for protection, communication systems for staying in touch with mission control, and tools to carry out experiments or repairs on the spacecraft. They also have access to exercise equipment to maintain their physical health and well-being while in microgravity.
People on Earth communicate with astronauts in space through a series of communication networks such as NASA's Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS) and ground stations around the world. Astronauts use specially designed radios and equipment on the International Space Station to speak with mission control centers on Earth.
NASA used a combination of velocity measurements, trajectory data, and communications with the spacecraft to calculate the reentry angle and timing needed to bring the astronauts safely back to Earth. These measurements were crucial in ensuring a precise and controlled reentry into the Earth's atmosphere for a successful splashdown.
