  • Read equivalent on each body.

About this calculator

Surface gravity table: g varies wildly across the solar system. Mercury & Mars share ~3.7 m/s² (about ⅜ Earth). Moon: 1.62 (just 1/6). Jupiter: 24.79 (2.5×!). Saturn comparable to Earth despite much greater mass — because of larger radius (g = GM/r²). Pluto: 0.62, near-weightless.

Frequently asked

Why so different?+
g = GM/r². Combination of mass and radius. Big-mass-big-radius (Saturn) ≈ small-mass-small-radius (Earth).
Weight vs. mass?+
Mass: kg, constant. Weight: N or lbf, depends on local g.
Most extreme?+
Lowest: Pluto (0.62). Highest planet: Jupiter (24.79). Highest body: Sun (274 m/s² but uninhabitable).
Effect on humans?+
Long-term low-g (Mars, Moon): bone loss, muscle atrophy. High-g: cardiovascular stress, hard to move.
Why is Saturn close to Earth?+
95× Earth's mass but 9.5× radius. Mass scales 95×, r² scales 90×. Cancels out for surface g.
