    A. It makes astronauts weightless.

    Explanation:

    Gravity does not make astronauts feel weightless. Astronauts are weightless because they are orbiting at the same rate as their shuttle.

    Although the force of gravity weakens as one moves away from the earth surface, it does not mean that this force is absent in orbit

    Gravitational force has a constant acceleration value near the earth surface which is commonly known to be 9.8m/s². It is a force of attraction tending to hold and bind bodies together so far they have mass. This force keeps every thing from escaping space-ward from the earth surface.
