A Correct answer
Explanation

The Moon's gravity is approximately 1/6th (about 16.6%) of Earth's gravity. This is because the Moon has much less mass than Earth - about 1/81th of Earth's mass. On the Moon, objects weigh much less, which is why astronauts could jump much higher and carry heavier equipment easily.
