What Is Gravity? | NASA Space Place – NASA Science for Kids What Is Gravity? Gravity is the force by which a planet or other body draws objects toward its center The force of gravity keeps all of the planets in orbit around the sun What else does gravity do? Why do you land on the ground when you jump up instead of floating off into space? Why do things fall down when you throw them or drop them?

What Is a Black Hole? | NASA Space Place – NASA Science for Kids Imagine a circle with a singularity in the middle The gravity on the inside of the circle is so strong that nothing can escape—it sucks in everything, even light That's why it's black! This circle is known as the event horizon An event horizon is probably what you are thinking of when you think of a black hole
What Is an Orbit? | NASA Space Place – NASA Science for Kids This statement is called Newton's first law of motion Without gravity, an Earth-orbiting satellite would go off into space along a straight line With gravity, it is pulled back toward Earth A constant tug-of-war takes place between the satellite's tendency to move in a straight line, or momentum, and the tug of gravity pulling the satellite
