  • Understanding Gravity: The Force That Pulls Everything Down
    The force that pulls objects down to the surface of the Earth is gravity.

    Here's a little more about gravity:

    * What is it? Gravity is a force of attraction between any two objects with mass. The more mass an object has, the stronger its gravitational pull.

    * Earth's gravity: Earth has a large mass, so it exerts a strong gravitational pull on objects near its surface. This is why things fall to the ground when you drop them.

    * Not just Earth: Gravity exists everywhere in the universe. It's what holds the moon in orbit around the Earth and the planets in orbit around the sun.
