An object's weight is less on the moon than on Earth. On the moon, the object's mass decreases?

Hi there!

This is because on Earth the gravitation pull is a lot stronger than on the moon. Weight is based off gravity while it’s MASS that shows how much space you actually take up.

Hope this helps !
