> Earth weighs around one ronnagram I think this is a error by nature.com, and Earth weighs around 5.97 ronnagram

  I think it's possible both statements are incorrect. The earth's mass may well be 5.97 ronnagrams. The weight of the earth would be measured in newtons, yes?

    Weight in relation to what? The Earth sits in the void of space, it is like a free falling apple.

      I believe you are correct. Within the gravitational field around it, the whole Earth is in free fall and has no weight. The Earth has a mass, however.

        Thanks for rephrasing. This was the crux of my observation.

      Agree with Earth’s “weight”, disappointed a physics website would make such a silly error! > void of space, it is like a free falling apple falling where in space??? =p ;)

        Everything is relative :)
