Free fall explains why astronauts have no mass while orbiting Earth?
Not quite. It explains why they have no weight. But their mass doesn't change.It's the same on earth, on the moon, and everywhere in between.
What is the difference between a person's weight on the earth and on the moon?
The difference between a person's weight on the earth and on the moon has to due with the difference between mass and weight. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter and weight is the pull of gravity on that mass. Gravity on the moon is about 83% that on earth, so if you weigh 100 lbs on earth, you will weigh approximately 17 lbs on the moon.
What is the mass of 64.44 grams?
The mass is 64.44 grams. But the difference between mass and weight is that mass is weight is how heavy it is on the planet you weigh it on and mass it the weight it is on Earth, whether is is on Earth, or not.

What is different about weight and mass measurement?
The difference between weight, OK say that your on the moon your weight is the same that it was on earth but your mass will be totally different then it was on earth.
What is the difference between mass on earth and mass in space?
There is no difference between mass anywhere in the universe; it will always be a specific type of bonding between atoms anywhere it goes. However, weight may change due to different gravities on different planets
Why don't we notice a difference between mass and and weight on Earth?
Because gravity is relatively constant anywhere on Earth's surface.
