What would you weigh on Barnard b?

Q: What would you weigh on Barnard b?

Barnard b has a surface gravity 0.58 times Earth's, so you would weigh about 42% less than you weigh on Earth. A 150 lb person would weigh about 86.5 lb there.

Barnard b’s surface gravity is 0.58× Earth’s, so you would weigh about 42% less than you weigh on Earth. That gravity is a lower bound: the mass behind it is a minimum, so the real pull could be stronger. Barnard b’s gravity is stronger than 4% of the known worlds in gravityfinder (a low bar to miss: most confirmed exoplanets are giants far heavier than Earth).
