Answer:
Explanation:
Gravity isn’t a one way thing, 2 objects pull each other. So if you have a pebble and a rock, it will take longer for them to go to each other than a rock and a rock. So, the Sun and Earth pull each other more than an astronaut and the Sun. Also, because the astronaut is so close to the Earth, and the sun is so far away, the gravity from the sun is not nearly strong enough to pull the astronaut to the sun. Basically, everyone is being pulled by the sun all the time, just not enough to be noticeable.
