Because space does not stop light from traveling. The earth has light sources on it that help it be seen on the dark side and on the light side it reflects a massive amount of light from the sun. The moon reflects light from the sun. The majority of what astronauts see locally is a reflection of the suns energy.

When traveling to space do astronauts travel away from Earth's orbit?
This depends on where the astronauts were headed to, If going to the moon, then no they do not leave earth's orbit. But if astronauts were to go to Mars, then yes. To go to other planets and to travel through space, Astronauts will leave Earth's orbit. When traveling to space from earth, Astronauts leave the atmosphere and will leave the orbit if necessary and if the travel distance is far enough.
Why do astronauts not go into space when they are on the moon?
The moon has gravity like the earth but not as powerful, yet enough to keep you on the surface
When astronauts travel to the moon their bodies experience a lower gravitational pull than on Earth Which type of pull are they experiencing?
Which type of pull? This is still gravity, but now it's the Moon's gravity or "Lunar gravity".
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.
How can astronauts wear an outfit that is heavier than they are?
Think about it. A astronaut wears his suit up in space where gavity level is much lower than in earth. If you have a 160 lbs. suit and a 125 lbs. man the suit would be about 25 lbs. in space and the astronaut would still have his strength to hold up his earth weight, 125 lbs. so he could carry his suit easily.

Is stuff legal in space that isnt legal on earth?
Astronauts in space are subject to the same laws that they would be in their home countries on earth, and they are still subject to the rules of the organization that put them there.
Why do astronauts still go into space?

Why are astronauts floating above the Earth in a Space Shuttle really no weightless?
Weight is an expression of the gravitational force acting on an object. When the space shuttle is in orbit around the Earth, it is held there by the Earth's gravity. Since gravity is still acting on the shuttle and the astronauts inside, they still have weight. They are described as "weightless" because an object in orbit is in a constant state of free fall.
What do you call Chinese people who go to space?
They are still called astronauts.
Is NASA still sending astrounauts into space?
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.
Can you see color in outer space?
There is no atmosphere in outer space to scatter light, so colors as we see them on Earth would not appear the same. However, objects in space still have intrinsic colors based on their composition and the way they reflect or emit light. Astronauts in space can still see these colors to some extent.
Is a space station the same as a space shuttle?
No, a space station is a large artificial structure in space where astronauts live and work for extended periods of time, while a space shuttle is a spacecraft that is used to transport astronauts and cargo to and from space. Space shuttles have been retired by NASA, while space stations like the ISS are still operational.
How quiet is it in space?
Space is completely silent because there is no air or medium for sound to travel through. This means that sound waves cannot be transmitted, resulting in complete silence. However, astronauts can still communicate using radio waves or vibrations within their space suits.
Why do astronauts not go into space when they are on the moon?
The moon has gravity like the earth but not as powerful, yet enough to keep you on the surface
How far away can you be from The Great Wall of China and still be able to see it?
Some say you can still see it from Earth's Orbit, but not from the moon according to astronauts. One of the astronauts was Neil Armstrong.
Is Apollo 13 still in space?
Apollo 13 astronauts were brought back safe to earth, and the only person of the three astronauts to die is John, jack Swigert, he died in 1983 of bone marrow cancer.
