In a zero-gravity environment, what happens if an astronaut pushes against a wall inside the spacecraft? *

1 point

They will move in the opposite direction with equal force

They will float still

They will stick to the wall

They will spin in place

Nothing will happen

Why do astronauts on the Moon need to exercise regularly? *

1 point

To prevent muscle and bone loss caused by low gravity

To stay warm in cold temperatures

To improve communication signals

To reduce radiation exposure

To keep the oxygen system running

Why does the Moon receive more cosmic radiation than Earth? *

1 point

Because it has no magnetic field or atmosphere to shield it

Because it is closer to the Sun

Because it reflects more light

Because of lunar volcanoes

Because it spins faster than Earth

1 point

Why do astronauts on the Moon need special protection from temperature changes? *

1 point

Because the temperature swings between +127 °C and -173 °C

Because the Moon’s gravity changes throughout the day

Learn about the extreme temperature swings on the Moon due to the lack of atmosphere.

Because solar panels overheat

Because there are frequent Moonquakes

Other:

What is the main reason liquid water cannot exist on the Moon's surface for long? *

1 point

Lack of atmospheric pressure causes instant evaporation

The Moon's low gravity causes water to float away

No magnetic field

Too much solar wind

The Moon's orbit pulls water into craters
