      I’m not an expert on gravity, I’m afraid – someone else might have a better answer. It’s essentially a force that attracts objects – anything with mass/energy – to one another.

      I’m no physicist so cannot give the greatest answer to this. From my understanding, gravity is a force which pulls stuff together which have mass/energy. The more mass something has, the stronger the pull of gravity has on the object. Gravity is basically what helps us stay on the ground.

      Here’s a link which might explain better along with a video – and has a fun little test your knowledge quiz at the end 🙂
