The astronaut in an orbiting satellite are always in the free fall state and one can feel weightlessness when the normal force is on the body is zero. When an object is free falling, there is no surface to support the body and hence, the normal force is zero and the body is in a state of weightlessness. Hence, the astronauts in an orbiting satellite are always in a state of free fall. Hence, the normal force is zero and the condition is of weightlessness.
