Because the moon's gravity is approximately 1/6th of that on Earth.
the moon is smaller than earth, thus it has less gravity
because the moon has less mass than earth so humans weigh less on the moon than earth
it waghs
while the mass of the astronaut doesn't change the acceleration of gravity on the moon is much less than that on earth. Since weight is a measure of force (N)=m(kg)xa(m/(ss)), a decreased gravity on the moon would mean a decreased weight
Anytime you are in a place with less gravity, you or any object will weigh less. The force of gravity on the moon is much less than on Earth.
because of gravity
the moon is smaller than earth, thus it has less gravity
Same reason the astronauts bounce around on the Moon. The Moon is smaller than Earth, so we weigh less. Saturn is bigger than Earth, so we would weigh more.

You will have less weight on the Moon than on Earth (83.3% less), but your mass will remain unaffected. If you weigh 150lbs on Earth, then you would weigh only 26.55lbs on the Moon.

The moon has weaker gravity than Earth does.
No, you weigh less because the moon has less mass, or is smaller, than earth whick means that is has less of a gravitational pull.
gravity is stronger on the earth cuz the earth is bigger that the moon :)>'
Yes, that is exactly what makes you weigh less on Earth then on the Moon, though your mass hasn't changed, your apparent weight does.
