Free-floating, planetary mass objects are bodies with around 13 times the mass of Jupiter that are often found drifting through young star clusters, such as the Trapezium Cluster in Orion.

The search turned up free-floating objects roughly two to three times the mass of Jupiter. By "free-floating," astronomers mean objects that aren't orbiting a parent star. These could be stellar ...

Pairs of planetary-mass objects, floating freely in space, intrigue scientists with their nature and origin. With masses comparable to that of Jupiter, these entities are often observed in young star ...

For example, the gravitational field strength on Earth is 10 N/kg whereas on Jupiter it is 24.7 N/kg. This means that a mass of 50 kg will weigh just over double on Jupiter than it would on Earth.
