In everyday usage, mass is often interchangeably with "weight". Every astronaut is different, just like everybody else.
mass doesnt change but weight does

The mass of an astronaut remains the same whether they are on the moon or on Earth. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter an object has and is independent of the gravitational force acting on it. However, the weight of an astronaut would be less on the moon compared to Earth due to the moon's weaker gravitational pull.
Your weight is a function (G=mg) of the gravitational pull (g) and the mass of the object in question (m). The mass of the Moon is only 1/6 that of Earth, so the astronaut on the Moon weighs only 1/6th as much as he does on Earth. His mass does not change.
The mass in kilograms of an astronaut on the Moon who weighs 165 lbs on Earth is 12.4kg

The earth's mass has no effect on its orbit. An astronaut on a "space walk" hovering over the space shuttle's cargo bay is in the same earth-orbit as the shuttle itself is, although his mass is much less than the shuttle's mass. At the same time, the shuttle and the astronaut are both in the same solar orbit as the earth is, although each of them has quite a bit less mass than the earth has.
Nothing, but his weight is 1/6 of his weight on Earth.
On Earth, 90 kg of mass weighs 882 newtons (198.4 pounds).

The moon is considerably smaller than the Earth, both in diameter and in mass, and it therefore has a much weaker gravitational field. The weight of an astronaut on the moon is the result of the mass of the astronaut, which is not changed by going to the moon, and the gravitation field of the moon. A weaker gravitational field produces a lower weight.
