What happens to astronauts bodies in space?
Their bodies would become very weak.
How do astronauts prevent muscle and bone loss in space?
Astronauts have to do routine workouts while in space. This is because the less gravity requires a less physical demand on their bodies and when they return to Earth the muscles are weaker and they can have a hard time getting use to our gravitational pull.
Why do Astronauts have to be very fit before going into space?
Why have scientists developed exercises for astronauts living in outer space for long periods of time? Due to lack of gravitational field all the systms of the body but especially the musculoskeletal system is affected, in terms of bone resorption. To mninimize the effects of zero gravity exercises are developed.
Did astronauts visit Neptune?
No. Astronauts have never been anywhere near any astronomical bodies except Earth and the Moon.
Why do sea divers and astronauts need to wear special suits?
Both astronauts and sea divers wear special sits because they travel into atmospheres that are strange to our bodies. Our bodies were not built to stand extremely deep waters and outer space. The suits protect them as they go about their business in those places.
When astronauts travel to the moon their bodies experience a lower gravitational pull than on Earth. Which type of pull are they experiencing?
external
Why the gravitational force is absent in space?
Gravitational force is not absent in space; it is just weaker in areas far from massive bodies. In deep space, where there are no massive objects nearby, the gravitational force is relatively weak. Astronauts onboard spacecraft appear weightless because they are in a state of free fall around the Earth, experiencing a similar acceleration due to gravity as the spacecraft they are in.
What does the magnitude of the gravitational force between two bodies depend on?
The magnitude of the gravitational force between two bodies depends on the mass of the bodies and the distance between them. The larger the mass of the bodies, the greater the gravitational force, and the closer the bodies are, the stronger the gravitational force.

Why do astronauts in space experience less gravitational force than they do on earth-?
The strength of gravity decreases as the SQUARE of the distance between the two objects (in this case, Earth and person). That means the pull will get weaker VERY quickly as you travel further and further away from the Earth, until it dwindles to almost nothing. Astronauts in space are far enough away from the Earth (or any other massive bodies) that they feel almost no gravitational pull. That is why they 'float' around.
Is there UP in space?
No; the directions up and down are defined by the gravitational attraction of nearby bodies only.No; the directions up and down are defined by the gravitational attraction of nearby bodies only.No; the directions up and down are defined by the gravitational attraction of nearby bodies only.No; the directions up and down are defined by the gravitational attraction of nearby bodies only.
What would be the greatest force of gravitational attraction?
The force of gravitational attraction between two objects is strongest when their masses are large and they are very close together. For example, a planet and a star or two massive celestial bodies would experience a strong gravitational attraction between them.
What holds bodies in their positions in the solar system?
A combination of the bodies' inertia, and the Sun's gravitational attraction.
Are gravitational forces always present in interactions between celestial bodies?
Yes, gravitational forces are always present in interactions between celestial bodies.
What kind of force is exerted on heavenly bodies?
gravitational force is exerted on heavenly bodies
Were the bodies of the Columbia's astronauts recovered?
In the ocean off of Cape Canaveral.
