Answer Question

5 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    An Astronaut is basically a person who is trained to command, pilot or serve as a crew member in a spacecraft. Normally the training is done by a human spaceflight program.

    Astronauts need specialized equipment and food in order to survive in space. A system is created for them which produces food, purifies their supplies, recreates oxygen and removes unwanted components also.

    They take with them freezed and dried food. Usually their food consists of wheat, potato, lettuce, radish, tomatoes, soybeans, peanuts, strawberries etc. They have limited objects that they can take into space. The air inside the spacecraft is constantly recycled. They also need the extravehicular mobility unit space suit for proper survival.
