20 stone
Mass: 127 kg; definition.
The quantity is exact as entered. Comparisons use the clearly stated specimen, model or nominal measurement.
Adult in a spacesuit
Defined suited mass: 145 kg; defined specimen; range 130 kg–160 kg.
A defined standing astronaut 1.9 m high and 145 kg while wearing an extravehicular spacesuit and life-support backpack. Suit configuration and wearer vary; mass is not weight and the helmet top defines the calibrated height.
The marked defined suited mass is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.
