When the first human visitors step foot on the surface of Mars, they're immediately going to notice that the gravity on Mars is much lower than they're used to on Earth. In fact, the gravity on Mars is 38% the gravity on Earth. In other words, if you weigh 100 kg on Earth, you would only weigh 38 kg on Mars.

It's important to understand that the kilogram is actually a measurement of your mass. And your mass doesn't change when you go anywhere in the Universe and experience different amounts of gravity. Your weight is best measured in newtons. But since your bathroom doesn't measure your weight in newtons, we'll use kilograms. This is what your bathroom scale would say if you stepped on another world.
