On that basis you could expect to jump higher, if not 6x then maybe 2-3x for example. Moving on. The dust from the tyres of the lunar module on Apollo missions seemed to act in Earth's gravity. If a vacuum isn't countering the moon gravity why does the dust thrown from the tyres act this way.

I read on the net that the moons gravity is one sixth that of Earth's so if I could jump 12" off the ground on Earth it would be 72" on the moon. I also see (you tube) that in a vacuum (akin to the moons surface) if you drop a feather and kilo weight simultaneously they reach the ground at the...
