Explanation:
The astronauts, the ISS itself and other objects in Earth orbit aren't floating, they are actually falling. But they don't fall to the Earth because of their huge orbital velocity. ... So, as they accelerate towards the Earth, the Earth curves away beneath them and they never get any closer.

Earth-orbiting astronauts are weightless for the same reasons that riders of a free-falling amusement park ride or a free-falling elevator are weightless. They are weightless because there is no external contact force pushing or pulling upon their body. ... The force of gravity is the only force acting upon their body.
