Answer:

84kg

Step-by-step explanation:

If the mass of an astronaut in on the moon is 84kg on the moon. After the 3weeks in returning home, his weight will not change. The mass of the astronaut will remain the same which is 84kg. This is so because the acceleration due to gravity experienced by the body remains the same both in the earth and in moon.
