If you go from the Earth to the Moon, will your MASS change?

Answer:

Your mass doesn't change on other planets, but the gravity and size of those planets affect how much you weigh. So, your weight depends upon the gravity of the planet and your weight keeps changing based on planet gravity. Mass is both a property of a physical body and a measure of its resistance to acceleration when a net force is applied. An object's mass also determines the strength of its gravitational attraction to other bodies.

Answer:

No matter if you are on Earth, the moon or just chilling in space, your mass does not change. But your weight depends on the gravity force; you would weigh less on the moon than on Earth, and in space you would weigh almost nothing at all.
