Could you really live in space? It would be very different from life on Earth! You would need special food, special air to breathe, and a place to protect you from the cold and emptiness of space. But astronauts on the space station show us that people can live in space for months at a time.
To live in space, you need a spacecraft or space station that provides air, water, food, and the right temperature. Everything floats in space, so eating, sleeping, and even going to the bathroom are all different! Astronauts exercise every day to keep their muscles and bones strong because there is no gravity to work against.
