Space/Science » in reply to Re: Secrets of Vesta

Vesta and Ceres are pretty big for asteroids (Ceres is the largest).

Vesta has a surface gravity of 0.022 g's, which would make me weigh about four pounds without a spacesuit. Escape velocity is .35 km/s, which means you might drift up but you'd drift right back down again.

Ceres' numbers are larger, but not by too much.
