    What i dont under stand is when they say like on a space walk if there life line is broke for whatever reason they'd just float off into space. My question is why woulndt the earths gravity pull them back down. Kinda doesnt make sense to me. The moon rotates around the earth and its huge, come on now somthing isnt addin up. Or im retarded. I dont know

    according to theory yes however,
    it would take a very long time to be pulled back, hence:

    what i dont get, along the same lines, is why pluto doesnt orbit a giant planet like saturn which is closer to it than the sun.
