Is our weight dependent on the position of the Moon and Sun?
« on: 29/04/2012 11:26:01 »
Ron Taylor  asked the Naked Scientists:
   
Hi Chris.

Does our weight change during the day depending where the Moon and Sun are?  Thought comes from the Moon affecting the tides.

From Ron Taylor, St Albans

What do you think?
