Why do astronauts train underwater?

It’s all about neutral buoyancy. Neutral buoyancy is a process that creates conditions mimicking weightlessness on Earth. This is achieved by completely submerging the subject in water and balancing gravitational forces to near zero in any position. This neutral buoyancy helps astronauts prepare for space missions.
