Gravity is the force which pulls a mass of matter towards the center of the Earth or other planet. The force of gravity is different for each planet. If a man weighs 150 lbs. on Earth, he will weigh differently on each planet in our solar system.
Mercury 57lbs.
Venus 136.5 lbs.
Mars 57 lbs.
Jupiter 351.0 lbs.
Saturn 159 lbs.
Uranus 138 lbs.
Neptune 178.5
Pluto 9 lbs.
Wow, I had no idea the differences varied that much. That's cool!
