How does being on the moon effect gravitational field strength

1 Answer

Your being on the moon has no effect on the moon's
gravitational field strength, or on the Earth's for that
matter.

However, YOU notice a change on YOU when YOU move
from one to the other, because of the effect of the gravitational
field strength on you and your internal organs.

If you could stand on the moon, you would experience an incredible
sense of lightness, since the forces of attraction between the moon
and anything else are only 16% as great as the same forces are on
Earth.
