Is it valid to say this is the "weight" of the moon? I would have assumed such measurements would deal exclusively with the moon's mass. Are the two terms use

Is it valid to say this is the "weight" of the moon?
I would have assumed such measurements would deal exclusively with the moon's mass.
Are the two terms used interchangeably in this context?
(honest question, I really have no idea)
- pavel_lishin 7y agoI'm using them interchangeably here, but you're right, it was sloppy - I should have said mass. (They're only equivalent on Earth, and even there a given mass's weight changes based on where you are!)
