How much would I weigh on the Sun?

1,957if you weigh 70 on Earth
On the Sun you would weigh 27.96× what you weigh on Earth — 27.96× more. Your mass never changes; only the pull of gravity does. Type your own weight below (any unit) to see it change across every world.

On the Sun: 0 (the same unit)

Why your weight changes but you don't

Weight is just gravity's pull on your mass. Step onto another world and your body is unchanged — the same atoms, the same mass — but the ground beneath pulls harder or softer, so a scale reads a different number. The Sun has no solid surface, but at its visible edge gravity is nearly 28 times Earth's — you would weigh about 28 times more, in the instant before you vaporised.

An astronaut who "weighs nothing" in orbit hasn't lost any mass at all — they are simply falling around the Earth so fast that they never hit it. Weight is about pull; mass is about stuff.
