The mass of an object is unaffected by gravitational forces. Assuming we ignore relativistic effects (mass increase to infinite and so on) we can say that an object with a mass of 5kg will have that mass anywhere in the universe (within reason).
On the other hand, an object that WEIGHS 5kg on earth will have a measured weight that varies considerably depending upon what gravitational fields are affecting it.

The mass of an object remains the what anywhere in the universe?
Same
What is your mass on other planets?
Mass is a measure of how much matter there is. Therefore your mass will remain constant on Earth, in space or anywhere in the universe. (unless you go on a diet)
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
What mass in the universe exerts a force of attraction on every other mass?
Every mass in the universe does that.
Why does space has no gravity?
A bucket full of space is not attracted to things with mass because the spacehas no mass.However, if you're in space, there's plenty of gravity there . . . you're attractedby a force of gravity to every object and speck of mass in the universe, just asyou are when you're sitting comfortable on Earth.And every object and speck of mass in the universe is attracted by a force ofgravity to you, just as it is when you're sitting comfortable on Earth.
The mass of an object remains the what anywhere in the universe?
Same
What is the mass of body anywhere in universe?
The mass of the object is the same as it was when you measured it on Earth, but its weight is different in other places.
Everywhere in the universe this characteristic of an object stays the same?
The mass of an object remains the same everywhere in the universe.
Gravity acts on any two object with mass anywhere in a universe true or false?
True lizziealvarez APEX:)
What is the mass of a object on Venus?
The mass of a given object on Venus is the same as it is anywhere else.
Is there gravity anywhere else in the universe?
Where a body has mass, there is gravity.
Does an object weight the same everywhere in the universe?
No. It is the mass that stays the same everywhere in the universe.
Does sun have gravity force?
Every object in the universe which has mass attracts other by gravity. Mass is the fundamental property of every object in the universe and it is due to mass gravity exits. So sun also has gravity.
When do you measure mass?
Mass(m) is the product of the gravitational pull, which is constant (g), of the planet or the largest heavenly body nearest to the object to be weighed and it's weight(w). Hence, gravitational constant(g) is the ratio between the MASS of an object and the Weight of the object. While the mass of an object is constant anywhere in the universe, the weight depends on the value of the gravitational constant. Thus, a 1 lb-mass of an object in earth will have the same mass of 1 lb-mass in the moon though they will weigh differently.Mass is measured in kilograms, hectograms , decagrams , grams , decigrams ,centigrams , milligrams.
Why do scientists rely on mass rather than weight?
Because an objects mass is the same anywhere in the universe.
What may be different when an object has the same mass anywhere?
The answer is weight.
What is mass vs gravity?
There is no such thing as mass vs gravity. Mass is the amount of matter in an object. Gravity is a fundamental force in the universe brought about by mass.
