The gravitation force on the moon is approximately 1/6 of that of the Earth. For example, I weigh 200 lbs. On the moon I would weigh 33 lbs. Awesome weight loss plan.

I noticed some of the postings using kilograms as an example. Kilograms is a measure of mass, not weight, and mass does not change in different gravitational pulls. 60kg on Earth is still 60kg on the moon.

One last thing, what's with the rude answers some people feel the need to give?

there is gravity on the moon. Did you ever see the flicks of the astronauts skipping on the moon and floating contained in the air at the same time as they jumped? The tides in the international are led to with the help of the pull of the moon on earth. without the moon there could be no tides.

The moon's gravitational force is only 17% of the Earth's gravity. For example, a 100 pound (45 kg) person would weigh only 17 pounds (7.6 kg) on the Moon.

0.166 Earth Standard.

The moon is a much smaller mass than earth and also a much smaller size(radius). Consequently, you only weigh about one-sixth of what you would weigh on earth. Thus the high jumping that is possible on the moon.

1/6 earth's gravity

I could be wrong but I think it is about one sixth that of earth's gravity.

I don't know. You might want to change your avatar though. I feel a lot people will somehow use your question to joke about the picture. But then again, that may be what you were trying to do.

1/6 that of the earth.

some one weighing 60kg, would weigh only 10kg on the moon.

Don't go to moon, the moon will come down to earth if you visit there.
