How strong would John Carter really be on Mars?

+0
−0

Let us assume that in the future, there is a formerly human colony on Mars that has existed there for some centuries. The people of this world have had time to adapt to the lower gravity over at least 10 generations, but not long enough for evolutionary selection to have had much effect. There has been no 'interbreeding' between Martians and humans from other places/gravity levels.

Assume that the Martians have built common everyday items to match their strength level and the lower gravity. The question can then be phrased two ways:

  • How much weaker are the current Martians than their Earthly ancestors?

or

  • How much stronger would a person from Earth be is transported to Mars?
