Here's how it works:
* Mass and Gravity: Every object with mass has a gravitational pull. The more massive an object is, the stronger its gravitational pull.
* Earth's Mass: Earth is incredibly massive, with a huge amount of matter packed into its sphere.
* Attraction: This mass creates a strong gravitational field that attracts everything towards its center. This includes the air, water, and everything on the surface, including you!
It's like a giant magnet, pulling everything towards its center. This pull is what keeps your feet on the ground, keeps the atmosphere around us, and even affects the orbits of the Moon and satellites around Earth.
