  I don’t know the answer to this but I did google it for you!
  
  What I found out is the earth is very heavy; it weighs 6,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kilos. It is such a large a number that there isn’t a word to describe it!
  
  The way scientists worked this out is by looking at how strong earth’s gravity is and how much it pulls something towards it.
