How much gravitational force does the moon exert on Earth?

Earth’s average surface gravity is about 9.8 meters per second per second. When an object is tossed off a building top or a cliff apex, for instance, it accelerates toward the ground at 9.8 meters per second per second. The Moon’s surface gravity is about 1/6th as powerful or about 1.6 meters per second per second.

Is a lunar colony the next step for Humanity?

A lunar colony is arguably the next logical step for mankind. It is our nearest stellar neighbour, a mere 238,000 miles (383,000km) away, which makes resupplying relatively easy. One attraction is the comparatively abundant supply of Helium-3 on the moon, which is an ideal fuel for fusion reactors.

Why is there less gravity on the Moon than on Earth?

Since the Moon is smaller, and has much less mass, it pulls with less gravity. In fact, if you could stand on the surface of the Moon, you would experience only 17\% the force of gravity that you would experience on Earth. Gravity on the Moon is much less.

How can we build a base on the Moon?

The first step in establishing a moon base might be robotic. Once unmanned missions establish the beginnings of a base, humans can launch to the lunar surface to conduct research and maintain the habitat. [ How to Live on the Moon (Infographic)]

How much would you weigh if you stood on the Moon?

If you stood on the Moon, and then onto your bathroom scale your weight would only be 17 kg. With gravity on the Moon so low, you would be able to jump much higher.
