Second, the greater the mass of an object, the stronger the force of gravity. Themoon<span> is 1/4 the size of </span>Earth<span>, so the </span>moon's gravity<span> is much </span>less than the earth's gravity<span>, 83.3% (or 5/6) </span>less<span> to be exact. Finally, "weight" is a measure of the gravitational pull between two objects.</span>
Then moon<span> is 1/4 the size of </span>Earth<span>, so the </span>moon's gravity<span> is much </span>less than<span> the </span>earth's gravity. the bigger the planet or moon the more gravity.<span> </span>
