Working in Space
Newton's third law applies everywhere in the universe—even in space. This video shows why Newton's third law made things difficult for astronaut Gene Cernan. His work outside the spacecraft is what astronauts call an "extra vehicular activity," or EVA. Engineers at NASA used Newton's third law to design solutions to help counteract, or cancel out, the effects of zero gravity for future EVAs. Click on the left to watch the video.
