What is the Weight on Different Planets Tool?

The Weight on Different Planets Tool is an interactive web-based calculator that shows how much you (or any object) would weigh on various planets, moons, the Sun, and other celestial bodies in our solar system.

Weight differs from mass: your mass (amount of matter) stays the same everywhere, but weight (the force of gravity pulling on you) changes depending on the gravity of the body you’re on. This tool uses relative surface gravity values compared to Earth to compute and display your weight instantly.

It includes planets like Mars, Jupiter, and Venus, plus moons (e.g., Earth’s Moon, Europa, Titan), Pluto, and even the Sun. Results appear in animated cards with simple planet icons that rotate for a fun effect.

How to Use This Tool

  1. Enter your weight on Earth: Type a positive number in the “Weight on Earth” box (e.g., 70).
  2. Choose the unit:
    • kg: Interprets input as your mass in kilograms, then calculates weight in Newtons (N) on each body.
    • N: Treats input as your Earth weight in Newtons.
    • lbs: Treats input as your Earth weight in pounds.
  3. Click “Find Wt”: The tool instantly calculates and displays your weight on all listed bodies in animated cards that fade in one by one.
  4. Reset if needed: Click the “Reset” button to clear everything and start over.

Who Can Use This Tool?

Anyone! It’s designed to be simple and educational:

  • Students and teachers — for learning about gravity, physics, and the solar system.
  • Space enthusiasts — to imagine what it would feel like on Mars or the Moon.
  • Kids and families — fun way to explore science (e.g., you’d weigh much less on the Moon and could jump higher!).
  • Anyone curious — no prior knowledge needed; just enter a number and explore.
