The force that Earth attracts another object towards itself is called gravity.

Here's a breakdown:

* Gravity is a fundamental force of nature that attracts any two objects with mass towards each other.

* The more massive an object is, the stronger its gravitational pull. Since Earth is incredibly massive, it has a strong gravitational pull.

* The closer two objects are, the stronger the gravitational force between them.

* This force is what keeps us on the ground, causes the moon to orbit the Earth, and holds the planets in their orbits around the sun.
