What is 1 lb on Jupiter?
An object that weighs 1 pound on Earth weighs about 2pounds 8.6ounces on Jupiter. An object that weighs 1 pound on Jupiter weighs about 6.3ounces on Earth. You expected a big, amazing number, because Jupiter is the planet with the most mass. But the force of gravity between two objects also depends on the distance between their centers, and Jupiter is so big that its surface is far from its center. So the size cancels out a lot of the effect of the huge mass, as far as weight is concerned.
