How Much Do Astronauts Weigh?

Last Problem:

Can you measure your weight anywhere in the universe using a spring scale?

Answer:

Yes. Weight is a relative magnitude and your weight may change from planet to planet or star to star, but a spring scale will always be capable of measuring weight – even if your weight happens to be zero (0) in that particular location.
