Out In Space

In Space there is no gravity and if you don’t have gravity you float about. You can’t sit down because there’s no gravity to push you on to the ground. In space there is a sleep station it goes all around the ship. For example: There’s a bed on the ground, walls and roof. If you’re sleeping on the roof and wall you don’t fall of because there is no gravity to push you to the ground. Did you know that space travel has been a huge success to human kind? It is a great feat to launch people into space and return them safely. Space suits weigh about 100 Pounds but you can’t feel the weight when you are in space. They have lots oxygen.
