Hey friends, gather ’round for some interplanetary body positivity! 😎
If you’re 100 kg on Earth… You are 37 kg on Mars.
You’re not FAT! You’re just on a wrong planet.
But Wait… There’s Actual Science Behind This Meme 🤓
Okay, nerd alert! Let’s break down why this hilarious meme is low-key genius.
The key here is the difference between mass and weight:
- Mass is how much stuff you’re made of (atoms, vibes, etc.). It stays the same no matter where you go in the universe. If you’re 100 kg of pure awesomeness on Earth, you’re still 100 kg on Mars, the Moon, or floating in space.
- Weight is the force gravity pulls on your mass. It’s what your bathroom scale measures. Weight = mass × gravitational acceleration.
Earth’s surface gravity is about 9.81 m/s². Mars’ surface gravity is about 3.72 m/s² – roughly 38% of Earth’s (sources like NASA and Wikipedia confirm it’s around 37-38%).
So, do the math: Your weight on Mars = your Earth mass × (Mars gravity / Earth gravity) ≈ 100 kg × 0.38 = 38 kg (the meme rounds down to 37 kg for that extra dramatic flair).
Why is Mars’ gravity weaker? It’s smaller (about half Earth’s diameter) and less massive (only 11% of Earth’s mass), so it pulls on you with less force.
Bonus perks of “moving” to Mars:
- Jump three times higher!
- Lift “heavier” things like a superhero.
- No more feeling weighed down by Earth’s drama. 😏
Of course, you’d still have the same body composition – this is just a fun way to remember that scales lie depending on where you stand.
So next time someone body-shames you, just hit ’em with: “Nah, I’m perfect. Earth’s gravity is just toxic.”
