Astronauts attach their sleeping bags to the wall of the spacecraft or space station primarily due to free fall. In the microgravity environment of space, there is no up or down, and without attaching their sleeping bags to a surface, they would float around, making it difficult to sleep comfortably.
When astronauts sleep in space, they sleep in small cabins or in sleeping bags that are attached to the wall of the station.
Which condition requires them to attach their sleeping bags to the wall?
high temperatures
presence of sunlight
free fall
absence of molecular oxygen
