Weight is a measurement of how hard gravity is pulling on a set amount of mass. The stronger the gravity on a heavenly body (planet, moon, star, asteroid, etc) the stronger the pull on mass. A block of lead that weighs 100 pounds here on Earth would weigh 16 pound on the moon (since the gravity of the moon is much less than that of Earth). The same block would weigh 236 pounds on Jupiter since it's gravity is much stronger than the Earth's. Mass never changes but the effect of gravity on that mass (weight) changes depending on what is pulling on it.
