Jumping through the planets.
Planets and their Moons -:
As you may know, the gravitational pull of a planet varies on the distance of the object from its core and mass of the planet and its size lets see the gravitational pull of different planets
Mercury -: Mercury closest planet to the sun of our solar system since it is lightweight and small it's gravitational pull is also less that is 3.7m/s^2 on this planet a normal human can jump vertical up to 4ft. but being close to the sun and not having atmosphere survival seems to be impossible on it, temperatures are extreme on its surface temperature can go low as minus 269 degrees and high as 427 degree Celsius
Venus -: Our neighbor planet has gravitational pull almost the same as ours which is 8.87m/s^2 on this gravity a human can jump up to 1.7 ft. and as we all know existence is not possible also on this planet reason behind this is its melting surface.
Moon -: We know much about our natural satellite since our moon is smaller in size and also being lighter than our planet it's obvious to have a lesser gravitational pull, the moon's gravitational pull is about 1.67m/s^2 and a normal person can jump 9 ft. high on its surface. If you want to know more about our moon you can go through my other blog Moon & Apollo 11.
Earth-: As we all know many facts about the formation of our planet and its habitat, the gravitational pull of our planet is 9.8m/s^2 and a normal human can jump 1.5ft high on this surface.
Mars-: Red planet and our neighbor shows some existence of life on it but its gravitational force is way less than ours which is about 3.7 m/s^2 and we can jump 3 ft. high on its surface, If you will fall from Olympus Mons (Highest mountain on mars) you will take 10 seconds to reach its surface.
Phobos -: Phobos is one of three moons of mars but if you will jump on its surface there is no coming back reason behind this is its small size and negligible gravitational pull that is 0.0057m/s^2.
Jupiter -: Largest planet of our solar system, but it's just the gathering of gas dust and rocks so being on its surface is itself a challenge even some-how you manage to be there you cannot jump higher than 0.6 ft. as its G force is much higher up-to 24.79m/s^2
Ganymede - Biggest moon of Jupiter among 79 of it and in terms of gravity it is much similar to ours and also has 1.48m/s^2 of G pull.
Saturn - Planet with the Highest number of moons, Saturn has about 82 moons and being bigger than Earth Saturn have a higher gravitational pull of about 10.44 m/s^2 and a person can jump up to 1.4 ft. in height
Uranus -: Twin planet of Venus, This cold planet is the second farthest planet of our solar system and can also claim to be coldest, we may think Uranus is the twin planet of Saturn but in terms of gravity, it is the twin of Venus it has gravitational force almost equal to Venus that is 8.87m/s^2. claiming it to be coldest as it's frozen and has minus 377 degrees of surface temperature.
Pluto - You might think being farthest to the sun it should be the coldest planet but its atmosphere freezes when it's farthest to the sun but gets melting when closest to the sun. This dwarf planet is having a gravitational pull of 0.62m/s^2 and one can jump up to 25 ft. of height.
