    the cube does not move

    Explanation:

    The Archimedes principle is fulfilled for the wooden cube in the Earth

    B = W

    ρ g V = m g

    When this cube travels to the Moon, the value of the gravity acceleration changes,

    ρ g_moon V = m g_moon

    ρ V = m

    So we can see that the buoyancy of the cube does not change when changing from Earth to the Moon

    In summary the cube does not move
