The force that pulls things towards the ground is called gravity. Gravity is something that you can’t see or touch. Isaac Newton named this force as “gravity” after he watched an apple fall from a tree. He noticed that things always fell down. They never went up. Later he figured out the important role that gravity played on the Earth. Moon’s gravity makes the tides change in the oceans. Gravity keeps the Earth’s atmosphere from flying o ff into space. The atmosphere is what gives us weather. Without it, the Earth would have no weather at all. Gravity also keeps us from flying off into space. It also makes the Earth go round the Sun. And it keeps the Moon going around the Earth. O f course, the Earth never touches the moon.
