Common Weight Conversions Metric Weight Conversions Unit Definition (fother [lead]) The fother is a traditional English unit of weight for lead. The fother, equal to 30 fotmals, was always a little smaller than a (long) ton. The original version seems to have been equivalent to 2160 avoirdupois pounds, and the version still being used in the nineteenth century was equal to 19.5 hundredweight or 2184 pounds. Unit Definition (jupiter) The jupiter is a unit of mass, now being used in astronomy to express the masses of new planets being discovered in orbit around various stars. It's equal to the mass of the planet Jupiter, estimated to be about 1.899 x 10E24 metric tons, or, if you please, 1.899 yottatonnes (Yt). By coincidence, this is approximately 0.001 Sun (0.000 955 Sun, to be more exact).
