Explanation:

When an astronaut is in an orbiting satellite, the astronaut and satellite are attracted towards the centre of the Earth and both will fall towards the Earth with the same acceleration. ... Because of this, the satellite does not provide a normal reaction on the astronaut, and hence, the astronaut feels weightlessness.
