Probably because there is no gravity
An object is lighter on the moon because the moon is smaller and thus lighter than the Earth
the gravitational force of the earth is much stronger then on the moon. Also, a person is not "lighter". their mass is the same, it is the weight of the person. Weight is a unit of measurement. You are lighter on the moon than on earth because there is 1/6 less gravity.
Well the easiest thing to say is that the moon is smaller and lighter than earth.
The earth becomes a litle lighter and the moon becomes a little heavier.
yes noob

No. You are lighter on the moon than on earth, though your mass remains unchanged.

The moon has less mass than the Earth, so it has less gravity. This is why you're lighter on the moon.
because theres less gravity
Yes they do because the gravity is less the moon. But on earth so you are likely to have a smaller mass on the moon then on earth. But in a way you feel lighter you are still the same weight on earth then on the moon
The moon is much less massive than the Earth, therefore the gravitational attraction of the moon is much weaker (about one sixth).
Since the moon's mass (the amount of matter it contains) is smaller than earth's, the moon has a weaker gravity pull, only one-sixth the pull of earth. This means that everything is six times lighter on the moon than it is on earth. A person weighing 120 pounds on earth would weigh only 20 pounds on the moon. Because man is light enough to float on the moon, heavy weights have to be put into astronauts' moon-walking boots!
The amount of gravity the moon has.
