The Moon stays in the space because of gravity and the momentum that the Moon has.

There is a gravitational force between the Earth and the Moon.

But the Moon has a velocity "sideways" compared with that force.

The combination of these two things results in a stable orbit of the Moon around Earth.

Is spaceport the same with spacestation?

No, a spaceport is a facility for launching and receiving spacecraft, while a space station is a spacecraft that is designed for long-term human habitation in outer space. Spaceports are typically located on Earth, while space stations orbit in space.


How do planets remain intact in space?

Planets remain intact in space due to the force of gravity, which pulls all the particles and objects towards the planet's center. The strong gravitational force keeps the planet's structure stable and prevents it from breaking apart. Additionally, the planet's own gravity helps to maintain its shape and hold its atmosphere in place.


What are the roles of gravity in your solar system?

Gravity locks the planets into orbits, keeping them from flying off into space and permitting humans to remain on the face of the planet.


When administering isotonic crystalloid solution about how much remain in the vascular system after 1 hour?

Approximately 25% to 30% of the isotonic crystalloid solution administered will remain in the vascular system after 1 hour. The rest of the fluid will distribute to the interstitial space.


How do planets remain intact in the space?

Planets remain intact in space due to the balance of gravitational forces that hold them together and keep them in stable orbits around stars. The force of gravity pulls matter together, forming a solid structure, while the centrifugal force from their rotation helps maintain their shape. Additionally, the vastness of space provides a relatively empty environment, reducing the likelihood of collisions with other celestial bodies. These factors combined allow planets to exist and maintain their integrity over billions of years.
