I'm really confused about how we float in space. What is it that keeps us from falling through it?
I've heard that astronauts in space are actually always falling, but move so fast that the Earth curves away from them.
If that's the case, what would happen if we were in space but extremely far from any object with it's own gravity?
Also, how do the Sun and our planets and other stars stay where they are?
Thanks!
