Here is the answer
In space , the only force that acts on a spacecraft is the gravitational force of the earth. Therefore, the spacecraft is in the State of free fall.
The velocity in free fall is independent of the properties of an object and thus is the same for the spacecraft , the travellers and the objects in the space craft.
The free fall leads to weightlessness of the space travellers as well as object in the space craft.
Being weightless , space travellers as well as objects in the space craft appear to be floating.
