The mass of an object on Earth is the same as its mass on the Moon. The weight is different.
Weight = m * g
Weight ( Moon ) = 40 kg * 1.6 m/s² = 64 N
If the mass of an object on Earth is 40 kg, its mass on the Moon is 40 kg and its weight on the Moon is 64 N.
Astronauts brought back 227kg of rock samples from the moon.
<h3>
Who is an astronaut?</h3>
A person who has been trained, outfitted, and sent into space by a human spaceflight program to serve as a commander or crew member is known as an astronaut (from the Ancient Greek words (astron), meaning "star," and (nautes), meaning "sailor"). The word is occasionally used to refer to anyone who flies into space, including scientists, politicians, journalists, and tourists, despite the fact that it is typically only designated for professional space travelers.
600 astronauts have made space flights since 1961. Up until 2002, only governments—either the military or civilian space agencies—sponsored and educated astronauts. A new class of astronaut was introduced in 2004 with the suborbital flight of the privately funded SpaceShipOne: the commercial astronaut.
