What happens to a fan in space?

If you’re in space where there is no air, the fan will spin, but there’s no air to be pushed around.

Do astronauts get cold on the moon?

Q: Does the Moon’s surface feel hot or cold to an astronaut? No. Of necessity, spacesuits are insulated. An astronaut going about his or her business on the moon is not going to feel any heat (or cold) from the surface even in the time it takes to fall down and get back up.

Can you feel temperature on the moon?

There is no significant atmosphere on the moon, so it cannot trap heat or insulate the surface. When sunlight hits the moon’s surface, the temperature can reach 260 degrees Fahrenheit (127 degrees Celsius). When the sun goes down, temperatures can dip to minus 280 F (minus 173 C).

Why is there no air to breathe on the moon?

It is the moon�s small mass and low gravity that prevents it from keeping hold of even a tenuously thin atmosphere. But oxygen needn�t exist only in gaseous form above the ground.

Would a fan work on the moon?

Since the moon is pretty much devoid of atmosphere, a fan would have nothing to blow. The fan could certainly move, it just wouldn’t accomplish anything. It will work.

What happens if you put a fan in a vacuum chamber?

Originally Answered: What will happen if you turn on a fan in a vacuum? It’ll turn, and it’ll turn really fast. With no air to push around, the fan blades are not meeting any resistance, meaning the only resistance to motion is from the friction in its bearings.

Does it rain in space?

As we leave Earth’s atmosphere and enter space, well, it’s pretty empty, with no air or atmosphere for clouds to form in and no water to form the clouds, and so, no rain. While it does not rain in space, we can find interesting weather on other planets.

Did Apollo 11 fake the Moon landings?

The Moon landings were faked. Apollo 11 didn’t happen. Humans never set foot on the Moon. Heard all this before? Conspiracy theories surrounding the Moon landings have proved worryingly persistent in the 50 years since Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin took their first small steps on the lunar surface.

What would happen if an astronaut jumped from the ISS?

If a spacewalking astronaut jumped from the ISS (and was not tethered to it as is the normal protocol), they too would be moving relative to the ISS and their separation distance would increase (i.e., sort of like getting left behind immediately) in whatever direction they jumped.

Why did Buzz Aldrin wave the flag on the Moon?

Buzz Aldrin saluting the proudly waving American flag on the Moon remains one of the iconic images of the Apollo 11 mission, a declaration of US supremancy over space race rivals the Soviet Union. But if there is no atmosphere on the Moon, there is no wind – so why is the flag waving?

Why are there no stars on the Moon?

NASA could not have faked the full wonder of the lunar sky, and so they simply chose not to include any stars at all. Here’s another solution: both the astronauts and the lunar landscape itself are brightly lit by the Sun.
