- Introduction: Review the definition of gravity Drop a ball and explain why it falls downward Explain that the strength of a gravitational pull is determined by the masses of the objects involved and the distance between the objects Hold up a scale model of Earth and a scale model of the Sun. Inquire as to which object would exert a stronger pull

Gravity is a force of attraction that exists between any two masses, any two bodies, any two particles. Gravity is not just the attraction between objects and the Earth.
A new satellite mission sheds light on Earth's gravity field and provides clues about changing sea levels.
Data from NASA satellite observations provide information about Earth's mean gravity field and inform monthly maps of the time-variable gravity field, both of which are useful tools for scientists as they study the planet's changing climate.
GRAVITATIONAL PULL See Gravity GRAVITY The force of attraction between two objects which is influenced by the mass of the two objects and the distance between the two objects. GYROSCOPE A heavy wheel or disk mounted so that its axis can turn freely in one or more directions. A spinning gyroscope tends to resist change in the direction of its axis.
Gravity causes the last of the star's matter to collapse inward and compact. This is the white dwarf stage which is extremely dense. White dwarfs shine with a white hot light but once all of their energy is gone, they die. The star has now reached the black dwarf phase.
