5 Questions That I Would Ask A Astronaut

5 questions that I would ask an astronaut
1.What kind of food do you eat in space?
I eat similar food that is on earth like fruit and yogurt.

2.How come there is no oxygen is space?
The gases are there because the earth keeps them there. The same is the case with other planets and stars and virtually all celestial bodies. The reason why there's no oxygen or any other gas in space is because there's nothing for it to hold on to.

3.How can you walk when you are on the moon becaause you could float of into outer space?
The moon has 1/6th the gravity of Earth. This means a 300 lbs man (such as an average astronaut with that heavy suit on) would only weigh 50 lbs. This also means that same man would be able to jump a height of 6 times normal, roughly a 15 foot vertical jump!

4.If you are in space for one year,is it the same on earth?
Time dilation explains why two working clocks will report different times after different accelerations. For example, ISS astronauts return from missions having aged slightly less than they would have been if they had remained on Earth, and GPS satellites work because they adjust for similar bending of spacetime to coordinate with systems on Earth.

5.What has been your favourite thing to experience when you were in space?
Going on the moon. It is super cool. You could see earth from up there.
