Gravity

Gravity is a pulling force

On this planet gravity pulls everything towards the centre of the earth!

This is why as we walk we stay on the planets surface and don't fall off into space!

It is why cars stay on the surface as they are driven and don't float away!

It effects us wherever we are!
Whether we are in the air, water or on the surface
Everything gravitates towards the earths center.

You may have heard the phrase:
What goes up must come down!
They were not kidding!
