Hey Ranger! Today we’re learning: Why don’t we float off the planet? 🌎 Gravity! It’s the invisible force that keeps everything stuck to Earth. Today’s mission: test gravity in different places.

Why don’t you float off into space right now? The answer is GRAVITY! It’s an invisible force that pulls everything towards Earth’s centre. Gravity keeps us on the ground, keeps the Moon orbiting around us, and keeps Earth orbiting around the Sun. Without gravity, there’d be no ‘down’, everything would drift away into space. It’s like Earth is constantly giving everything a big hug and saying, ‘Stay here with me!’ Pretty amazing, right?

Mission Objective: Learn what gravity is and why it’s crucial for keeping things on Earth.
