How much would I weigh on the Sun?

Data as of July 2026
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.
