What Causes ‘Gravity’ and Why Does It Affect Everything Around Us?

Gravity is what makes things fall. Imagine you're holding a ball, and when you let go, it drops to the ground, that’s gravity at work! Gravity pulls everything toward the Earth, like how your feet feel grounded even when you’re jumping or running. It's not just on Earth either; the moon keeps orbiting around the Earth, and planets keep moving around the sun because of gravity too!
