I don’t know about “habitable”, though. I’d weigh 1000 lbs!

I was going to say that Al Gore would find this as good news, but if you’d weigh 1000 lbs, he’d probably weigh 5,000.

"I don’t know about “habitable”, though. I’d weigh 1000 lbs! "Then you must weight 450lbs here. LOL! A 200lb person would weight 444lbs on that planet, so the planet's not habitable. The story's poorly written, but the weight factor is 5/1.52=2.2.

IRRC Gravity would be a function of mass. Since we don’t know the density of the planet, weight is indeterminable.

What's the formula for gravitation from mass?
i.e. How'd you find out how much you'd weigh on the planet? And would you actually be that heavy?

Man! Where were all of you when I was screwing up my Physics labs 30 years ago?
From a quick read, I missed the radius, OK? Gimme a break... I’ll do better, I promise.
(I’d weigh 488 pounds...)
