Why do astronauts need to go to the hospital?
Most astronauts have to go to the hospital anyways for a check up before they leave for space. Some astronauts get hurt or injured n space and may need to get tothe hospital when they return. When astronauts get back they have an examination too. Astronauts are highly trained, but they are still human and can get sick or injured like anyone else.
What is the training astronauts go through?
Astronauts go through a great deal of training prior to going into space. It can take years for astronauts to go through all the training they need, which includes learning to work in zero gravity and going through a variety of realistic simulations.
Do astronauts have to ware space suits all the time?
No, only when they leave the space shuttle or whichever vehicle they have traveled in.
How many astronauts are in space?
Approximately 463 astronauts have been to space, but usually there are only three at once - the astronauts on the International Space Station. When the shuttle is on a mission there are a total of ten or eleven people in space.
Why do we sent astronaut in the outer space?
Astronauts are exploring the space and the moon , as all of us can not go out there. They are also exploring the space and the moon to find new things.
What technology helps astronauts work outside of the space station?
Astronauts use Extravehicular Mobility Units (EMUs) to work outside of the space station. These suits are equipped with life support systems, communications gear, and tools needed for spacewalks. Additionally, astronauts are tethered to the space station to prevent them from floating away into space.

Does a space shuttle have an oven?
No. All of the astronauts food is pre-made and packaged. This eliminates the need for cleanup or damage to the space shuttle's instrumentation.
How do astronauts survive in space when they are actually up there?
They survive by bringing all they need with them - food, air, water... etc.
What fun do astronauts have in space?
Dude their in space, come on! They have all the fun.
Do astronauts die in space?
Well, some astronauts do. Not all astronauts will die in space, but some will if the mission went wrong or if it is just being there when you die of natural causes.
What percentage of astronauts die in space?
As of now, no astronauts have died in space. All fatalities involving astronauts have occurred during launch, re-entry, or training missions, rather than while in the vacuum of space itself. Therefore, the percentage of astronauts who die in space is effectively 0%.
What do all astronauts have in common?
They all wear space helmets and eat the same things.
What research does the Johnson space center do?
All the astronauts train at the Johnson space craft center in Texas.
What is the training astronauts go through?
Astronauts go through a great deal of training prior to going into space. It can take years for astronauts to go through all the training they need, which includes learning to work in zero gravity and going through a variety of realistic simulations.
What did the astronauts do to survive on the space shuttle?
Ensure all systems are working correctly.
What do astronauts add to their food in space?
Many but not all types of space food are freeze dried and water must be added before they can be eaten. Some types of space food are ready to eat and don't need anything added.
