Why is it impossible to cry chi chati near the cosmos - scientific explanation. Why can't astronauts cry in space? Can cosmonauts cry at the open space

Svitanok is not rich

All in all, the crew of the ISS sends 16 svitankiv - The sun rises and sits on the skin of the second year. After some sleep, the astronauts become uncomfortable. That is why, especially for the team, their own time zone was broken up, averaged over the hour between Moscow and Kh'yuston - the two main earthly centers for managing flights. Special curtains on the illuminators zanuryuyut the ISS at the sing year at night, creating the illusion of night.

"Sleep my joy sleep...»

The process of sleeping in space is not so easy as it can be seen at first glance. The artificially created illusion of the night cannot compensate for the daily gravitation: astronauts have to sleep fastened, so as not to sleep for an hour in bad weather. It's already noisy on the ISS because of the great number of possessions, all kinds of pumps, fans and filters. Ale, unconcerned with all the nuances, the lack of space has a calm sleep, lower on the Earth. And in certain depressions, under an hour of sleep in the lack of space, the cosmonauts are allowed to sleep.

On the eve of Cosmonautics Day, we present the five most famous stars from space from Chris Headfield.

1. This story began in early 2011. The ISS team was working near the open space, if astronaut Endrew Fustel shrugged on a sharp bіl near the right eye. How to get out of the “mote”, like you are in a bad space, and you are wearing a clumsy spacesuit? Violently, but wipe the eye far away. Since this story was known on Earth, Chris Hedfield received food from a student: how can you cry in space? I axis video feed.

As it appeared, crying at the cosmos is not only smooth, but it hurts more. With zero gravity, tears do not fall into disguise - the salt of the motherland accumulates in one great water sack under your eye. And then - let's spread out in disguise, eat at ours, wuha, or else an eye. Zagalom, the best way out of the situation is to get wet with a towel. Otherwise it will be more painful, obіtsyaє Hedfіld, demonstrating tsey dosvіd іz zvichaynoy water.

2. "Slozi Deliver Bіl" - the headline for the new song by Chris Hedfіld. A Canadian became the first astronaut in history to record his own music track in orbit. Jewel in the Night after sleeping on one of the holidays on the ISS. The text was written by Hedfield's brother, and in the song itself there is a story about those who look at the Earth, if you marvel at it from space. Krіs navit not ochіkuvav such pop-popularity and now promises to present a light album of right space songs.

Prospects for the career of Hedfield are obvious. Stars of the stage ask you to sleep in a duet, regardless of those who have not yet managed to turn to the Earth.

3. The most important speeches of negligence can cause a lot of problems. Axis, for example, instructions, how to brush your teeth for the minds, if all the necessary ingredients are simply poured around you. Gidlivim prohannya do not marvel. It appears, and toothpaste, and brudnu water after all procedures, the astronauts simply forge.

So it is very neatly necessary to work, if you have a haircut or naked.

Obviously, astronauts need to train a good reaction on Earth, otherwise the ISS would have to be cleaned every day. Before speech, cleaning up is not an easy task. Here Chris Hedfield describes how to deal with the spliffs and the mud on the ISS.

4. Chris Hedfield really loves to take pictures at the edge. The first axis here is more satisfaction to bring not the process, but the result. A series of photographs from outer space on the Earth call out the hoarding and hoarding.

Especially popular was the recently photographed photo of Minsk, sent from orbit. “Success! For the benefit of many months, we were able to take away the bright sign of Minsk, Belarus, the native place of the lucky member of the ISS crew Oleg Navitsky ”- such a record was published by Hedfield at once from the photo.

5. Share Chris Hedfield and some medical details of living on the ISS. In one of the sessions, a call from the Earth rose to the ground, which the astronauts today pass through a lot of looking around, to assess how negligence is pouring into healthy people. It appears that some people have a drop in space near the cosmos. In order to understand this phenomenon, the eyes of the ISS crew members undergo a dozen procedures at the advanced optical equipment.

Like rozpovidi cry out, krіm usogo іnshoy, more a little bit zazdroshchiv to Canadians, like they can in the regime of direct ether splinter with their cosmic heroes. Our Roskosmos does not give such opportunities. Secrecy, damn it!

Everyday life in orbit has few secrets. Increasingly greater interest among the public is calling for the obstruction of cosmonauts at the International space station. How does the good routine look like in the absence of space?

Astronaut Chris Hedfield's career turned out miraculously: having experienced first time in space and the first of Canadians in outer space. Also, having written a wonderful book “Astronaut’s Career from Life on Earth”, he reportedly spoke about his career and looked at the profession. For the millions of people of Hedfield, we are inspired by the popular videos on youtube, which we recorded on our own at the International Space Station (ISS). The reason for the success of yoga clips is simple: because of the popularity of the wide public about everyday life astronauts about the peculiarities will be in the minds of zero gravity.

Remaining new status as an Internet celebrity, having recorded a video recording, on which Hedfield played a guitar, played a cover version of David Bowe's song "Space Oddity", enjoying the misfortune on the ISS. The video called for the majestic interest of the merezhі, so far it has been looked at by over 30 million people.

To spread the word about everyday life in orbit, it is necessary first to describe the International Space Station, as a house for a skin cosmonaut. The ISS is a gigantic space ship with a weight of over 400 tons, built-in commodities and materials in 14 countries. The ISS is collapsing in an orbit with a speed of 27,700 km / year, for the benefit of the station 16 times around our planet. Also, the cosmonauts can watch for a long time to achieve 16 descents and entries of the Sun, which are hostile to the newcomers to the ISS, as it is important to look at the illuminators with breathtaking views.

Climbing on board the ISS, I once understood that the lack of space has a clear understanding of “top” and “bottom”. The cosmonauts feel comfortable, however, if the body is in any position, in the very same module one can work out on the “wall” on a sports simulator, while another cosmonaut can hang upside down, doing scientific research. On the orbit, the skin of the person itself determines, de you top, and de bottom. Pochatkіvtsіv on the ISS is against constant noise. Pumps, fans and other systems of life are constantly working. The background buzz is regularly interrupted by thick claps, which make the sound of firecrackers sound, which vibrate. Tse small meteorites crash into the armored casing of the station. To protect the illuminators from impacts of meteorites, they are covered with special metal windows, if the astronauts get ready for bed.

In the cosmos, all earthly activities take on a chimeric character, and those that are natural for us on Earth become invisible in the minds of negativity. For example, nothing. Astronauts on the ISS sleep with special bears that look like cocoons. The stench is attached to the wall and ensures high comfort, regardless of the presence of pillows or mattress. On the right, in that the astronauts do not turn around, trying to know the most convenient place for the body. Headfield describes the feeling in a sleeping bear in the ISS with an offensive rank: “Sleep first in the dark, like a miraculous trim.” The sleepy cosmonaut on the ISS looks terrified: his hair is fried, and his hands are spreading out in front of him in front of him. Tim is no less, like a dream on the ISS is on a high level.

For us, it’s obvious that if we put a spoon in order with a plate, then it’s there to be left out, but with zero gravity, whether or not an object is smeared in front of you. Therefore, on the ISS, there are small items on Velcro. Having written in olive oil, the astronaut attaches it to the wall of the module. There was no yakbi Velcro, but olives, combs, markers and spoons were used different directions throughout the station, appeasing the right chaos.

Sliding on board the ISS, the cosmonauts automatically get overhead. The stench can literally fly, easily transfer important objects, perform acrobatic twirls at the front, without applying special zusil. Charming camp of negligence is embodied in everyday hygiene procedures. For example, toothpaste astronauts are brought to kotati. Yakby htos on the ISS її spitting, as if timidly tse day, then it would immediately fly into all sides, becoming a problem for the crew and all the space station equipment. For good reason, the astronauts have been spared the soul, the mittya on the ISS is less likely to be rubbed with a special wet cloth. Wash your head with a special shampoo, which is not necessary to wash, just dry your hair.

So it is impossible to make speeches on the ISS, and all astronauts wear only new clothes. Behind the fortunes of rich cosmonauts, it is important to be able to take a shower or a bath in trivial expeditions. The gravitational pull has sprung up on the power toilet on the ISS. Toilet roztashovuєtsya in a special budtsі and є less than a hose, attach to the wall. When the hose is tightened, the hose is repaired with great force to retract the wind. Such a principle of robotic toilet allowing not to turn the ordinary toilet into a catastrophe for the entire station.

The ISS is equipped with a special water purification system that converts 7,000 liters of water into the river. Vidpovidno, cutting that pet astronauts, as well as water turn to clean drink water. The creation of a filtering system has increased the autonomy of the station, now it is not necessary to deliver drinking water to the ISS. Possibly, whoever has a similar fact calls out to an ogidu, prote cosmos does not know the zavoi of sentimentality. The achievement of the great goal is to vmіnnya step over yourself and make grain from the chaff.

The human body is molded under the influence of gravity, in a similar manner to the mind of an unmarried mind, to beware of low changes on the physiological level. In times of lack of space, boredom is often observed, and immunity is a halt of weakening, shards of the nasal sinus are not cleared by sufficient peace. For rich newbies, the first days at the station pass with a headache and stuffy nose. Looking at the ISS, the cosmonauts must add a couple of centimeters to the height of the sky for the fact that there is no more gravity on the ridge. If an astronaut on the ISS flattens his eyes, then he will succumb to bright flashes that periodically appear. This is a visual confirmation of the post-radiation prominence that all people in orbit are supposed to.

Trivale perebuvannya in the minds of negligence to bring to the point of severe atrophy of all m'yaziv, after landing the cosmonaut is important to caress his body and stand on his feet. After the astronaut’s flight, he needs a few months of special training to turn his physical form. In order to improve the m'yazi and brushes in a greater or lesser normal state, the skin cosmonaut is guilty of giving 2 years of his physical rights on special simulators. For example, it is necessary to tie the legs to the exercise bike, otherwise it is easy to see it.

The astronauts are trimmed to a healthy diet, within the framework of which it is completely lubricated and fattened. Special diet on the ISS full visibility bread, to the fact that litany everywhere the krihts could lead to the clarification of the changed filters and other problems. The menu of astronauts is more varied, prote mayzhe the whole zha on the ISS is filled with water. At a special package, add water, then pour it out and proceed until it's ready. Cosmos has the taste of being like a dream, and fresh fruits and vegetables on the ISS are only available to great saints.

The cosmonaut gives a detailed description of the plan for the day to Shoranka, which breaks into 5-fold windings. Today, the cosmonaut is responsible for conducting scientific research, ensuring the station’s routine, maintaining hygienic procedures, performing analyses, improving physical fitness, consulting with specialists from the Center for Health Management and many other things. At a rare hour, the cosmonauts are encouraged to communicate better with their families and video calls, play musical instruments or admire the unique views of the Earth from space.

The cosmonauts are constantly preparing to be alright before the launch of the rocket, trying to overcome all possible problems. However, it is necessary to keep in mind that the cosmos is more precious than the middle ground, in which a person can use more than an hour and a break for the achievements of science and technology. For an astronaut, there is always a great risk for an hour spent working in a safe space with zero gravity. Chris Hedfield tells about his first vacation in outer space at the book "Astronaut's Career from the Life of the Earth".

In front of Headfield, a meta-install robotic manipulator Canadarm2 on the ISS. Pulling into the spacesuit and once again repeating the thoughts of the algorithm of the future robot, the astronaut proceeded to the robot. Hedfield, feeling calm and confident, the robot was successfully beaten, and a special cable, like an umbilical cord, tied yoga from the ISS, guaranteeing a return to the ship. However, then there were those who at some point hesitated to guess the fact that there is no dribbling in space.

After many years of successful work, the lion's eye pierced the hostile world. The cat ate Hedfield in the eye. Vіn instinctively trying to wipe his eyes with his hand, but, naturally, not a moment's death, shards of buv at the spacesuit. Vіn actively blinking and trying to turn his head, otrimuyuchi commands from the fahivtsіv of the Earth. Ale didn’t help anything, his eyes became wet with tears, and he could become blind. On the right, in the fact that you can see the realities of earthly life, if tears, the forces of gravity are sinking, flowing along, there is nowhere to go in space. Tears are left in the eyes, transformed into a bag of salty motherland and grow in size. For a sprat of thinness, Hedfield is practically blind, resting at the open space. The situation became critical through, it would seem, such rubbish. It was necessary to finish the work and turn to the ISS, but maybe the blind astronaut could not stop crying. Hedfield was running out of calamity spit, his eyes were very ill, even as the stock of sour changed. All ended well for Prote.

Following commands from the Mission Control Center, the astronaut in a certain hour zooms in and out frequently. Thinking to himself, Headfield far away finished the installation of the manipulator, spent more than an hour on it, planned less, and safely turned back to the ISS. Vipadok, descriptions by Hedfield, in some cases to tell about those that the cosmos can always create an unacceptable surprise. And for us, let's forgive the sacks of the Earth, let's remember that behind the romantic halo of robotic cosmonauts there is a gigantic work, a risk and a sound comfort at the bottom.

The science

Really astronauts, obviously, also cry. Prote, as NASA scientists explained, in the minds of microgravity, tears do not flow down, like the Earth, but are shed at home. The stench is zbirayutsya long-term apple.

More than that, such tears make many unacceptable impressions.

At grass 2011 rock cosmonaut Andrew F'ustel it is possible, the first to recognize, what is seen, if the eyes close in space.

Under the hour of departure from the outer space F'yustel is more vigilant than the liver of the vich. As it seemed later, in the middle of the cosmonaut's sholom, trochs of sweat were consumed, which screamed tears. Youmu was far away to rub his eye about the lips of the attachments, which sound victorious to squeeze the nose while lifting the vise, that will lighten your camp.


Zgіdno s scientific explanations, tears are not guilty of viklikati bіl. Although we do not know exactly why we are crying, ourselves tears may have a softening effect. Ale, as it seems, negligence is negatively signified at the dawn of the people, which is caused by the displacement of the native land to the head. It is possible that in space the dryness of the eyes is blamed, and the rapt hit of the middle can cause a liver.


As explained by the former cosmonaut Ron Parisi, how to pick up a lot of tears, the stench comes out of the eyes and swims around. Tobto you can, out of satisfaction, watch over him, as if your unfortunate tears are shed before you.

Non-Vagomity Mill

What is the camp of negligence? We called to mind that the astronauts are floating in space, fighting in defiance of the laws of gravity. To that it is rich who cares that in space there is no force of gravity. In fact, gravity is the spark of the All-World and the most important force that flows into everything that exists in space.


What is it like to be with an astronaut, who is trying to change at a bad bridge? More precisely, the camp could be called free fall.

Why don't astronauts fall to the ground? Here is the law of an accelerated free fall. If an astronaut misses an apple at a space station, all the stench falls: an apple, an astronaut, and a station. Tilki stench fall not on the Earth, but after a long time to that the stench will grieve for the Earth. Objects in the earth's orbit are built floating, even though the stench really collapses with the same orbital speed, like a spaceship, more than 28,000 km per year.

Homeland near the lack of space

Experiments with water for the minds of negligibility at the International Space Station.



Drinking water in space is not an easy task. Shards of water do not flow through the minds of microgravity, they drink the whole country from containers through a straw. Without it, the cosmonauts had a chance to "taste" small pieces of mihur floating water.



How do astronauts go to the toilet? Water, for obvious reasons, cannot also be victorious for zlivu. The output products are wound up at a special whirlpool with a hose, and then they are taken off at the outer space.

It’s rich, like people today, automatically and without thinking, in the minds of incompetence, they become impossibly. It is impossible to lie by the cosmos, to walk and sit, to be vigilant and to drink water from bottles. To find out why in space it is impossible to cry chi chhati, you need to guess the lessons of physics.

In times of microgravity, tears do not flow down, but are shed at home

The law of all-worldly gravity for the minds of unconquered space does not exist. The daily gravitation is caused to the point that tears are impromptu running down the cheeks, as the Earth shakes. The homeland comes out of the lacrimal canal and is left in the oci - the stronger the crying of the astronaut, the more will be the formation of mihur. It is not possible to fall into the wine - yogo utrimuvatime on the shkir_ pov_k the force of the surface tension.

Slozna homeland may be at the warehouse of salt, that won't be fired and roses' eyes. If you often cry in bad weather, then tears can negatively affect the astronaut's mind.

For the removal of the bulbs that have accumulated, for the eyes of the astronauts, special miniature trays are broken up, brought to the plastic containers. For example, tears are not rich, you can speed up harshly.

Why not go into space


It is impossible for space to create the primal earthly forces through the daily gravitation

Another sprat of "fence" is the guard that lives in the minds of negligence:

  • Cosmonauts are uncompromisingly cut and naked in a wonderful way. I electric shavers, and cutting knives are attached to the tube, and the hairs are pulled into the yak.
  • Kip'yatiti is a simple teapot. It is practical to boil the water through the vise of the vise, but only in that place, where it is necessary to heat up. Peremishuvannya (convection) again and again is impossible through the presence of gravity. In addition, the water that boiled over, mitteva reaches.
  • Coristuvatisya perfume. Take with you from the cosmos loved perfumes for astronauts are fenced. Oskilki in lack of blood flow, the human system works anyway, the scent receptors function more intensively. Spriynyattya odours, in a nastіlki zastryuєtsya, scho microscopic dose of perfumery can cause bіl head.
  • Sneeze. Surely, no one can hedge it. However, with a strong breath, a reactive opir can be blown out, with which the cosmonaut will often turn around or slam sharply against the necessary objects.

Cosmos dictates its own laws, to that, with a long time in orbit, astronauts have to train for a long time, in order to overcome in the minds of negligence and learn how to perform ordinary manipulations.
