Regular D&D has encumbrance rules (and sample weapon/armor weights) if desired: Strength x 10 is the number of pounds you can carry around without being Slowed.
The same rule is in D&D Gamma World, on page 77.

3) How many times can you use an origin power per game/encounter? I know it's obviously limited to one a turn, but I'd also assume only one use per encounter/per power.
In general, Novice powers are At-will and utility and expert powers are 1/encounter. There are some 1/encounter Novice powers in the GW rulebook, none in Far-Go. There is one 'daily' in Far-Go.
I like to standardize things, and make all Novice powers Standard-Action, and at-will; and all expert powers 1/encounter.

I know it's obviously limited to one a turn, but I'd also assume only one use per encounter/per power.
Note: if the power is at-will, it's only limited by its action type. For example, the Magnetic Novice power is a Minor action, and could be used 3 times on your turn. A standard action at-will could be used more than once per turn if, for instance, you were granted another standard action, but such a condition doesn't yet exist in Gamma World to my knowledge.
It doesn't come up much, but it's worth noting that no "1/turn" restriction exists inherently.

Jon, I think there are some Alpha mutations that can give you another standard action in a turn.

Adrenaline Pill is one of them.

Started wondering, is there a way to use Science to physically heal someone? I know to stabilize someone who is dying is a DC15 Science Check, but I've not noticed any sort of First Aid/Healing rolls available or whatnot.

Some GM's might allow a DC10 science check to trigger someone else's second wind (similar to D&D). Otherwise, one could view other first aid efforts as part of a 5 minute rest.

There is no science check needed to trigger someone else's second wind. It's a standard action and can be done by anyone.
Page 22 core book: "If you are unable to take actions, another character can use a standard action to trigger your second wind."

Awesome. Thanks.

Notably, the first aid kit gives a +1 to Science checks for healing, however.
