The mass of the PLUTO rover, part of NASA's mission to explore Pluto, is approximately 1,500 kilograms (3,300 pounds). This rover is designed to conduct various scientific investigations on the surface of Pluto and its moons. Its lightweight construction allows it to navigate the harsh conditions of the distant dwarf planet.

How do astronomers determine Pluto's mass?

Astronomers determine Pluto's mass by observing its gravitational influence on its moons, particularly Charon, which is its largest moon. By measuring the orbital period and distance of Charon, they can apply Kepler’s laws of motion to calculate the mass of Pluto. The mass can be determined by rearranging the formula that relates the orbital characteristics of Charon to the mass of Pluto and the system's gravitational forces. This method has provided an accurate estimate of Pluto's mass, which is about 1.31 x 10^22 kilograms.


Mars and Pluto have just about the same mass which planet has greater gravity and why?

Actually, the idea that Pluto had about the same mass as Mars is outdated. It is now known that Pluto has less than 2% the mass of Mars, and therefore has less gravity.


Why is there more gravity on Pluto than on Earth?

There isn't. The "surface gravity" is dependent on the mass (of the planet, etc.) and the distance of the surface from the center of mass. Pluto has MUCH LESS mass than Earth and the gravity is much less on Pluto.
