Planet Density Table: Mean density by Mass

Reference table of mean density for Planet Density across a range of mass values — exact, engine-computed figures you can read off at a glance.

How to use this table

Find the row closest to your mass and read across to the mean density. For a value between two rows, the real figure sits between them — or enter your exact numbers in the Planet Density Calculator for a precise answer.

Need a value that is not in the table? — the Planet Density Calculator does it instantly, for free, with the formula and a worked example built in.

Frequently asked questions

Each cell is computed with the standard formula using exact arithmetic — the same calculation behind our Planet Density Calculator — so every figure is accurate for the stated assumptions.

Yes. The table covers common mass values; for any exact figure, enter your own numbers in the Planet Density Calculator.
