ponderable
Able to contemplate
Ponderable describes something that can be weighed or measured, either literally or figuratively.
More often, it means worth considering or capable of being thought through: The committee raised several ponderable questions about the proposal.
The word carries a slight formality, suggesting matters deserving serious reflection rather than casual thought.
