No. Gravity is able to operate just fine between the Earth and the Sun,
without contact, and with 93 million miles of nothing in between.

Why is gravity considered a non contact force?
Non-Contact ForcesWhile the ball is in the air, one force acting on it is gravity. Gravity pulls the ball down to the earth without touching it. This means it is an example of a non-contact force, or a force exerted on an object that does not make contact with it. Another example of a non-contact force is magnetism. Read more about magnetism.
Is thrust a contact force or non contact force?
No, upthrust would not be considered a non-contact force. It would be considered a contact force. It is making contact with an updraft of air.
Is applied force a contact force?
Not necessarily, for instance gravity.
What is considered a conservative force?
-gravity
Can gravity be considered a force?
Yes.
Is gravity considered a contact force because it acts on objects directly?
Gravity is action at a distance, a non contact force

Is gravity a contact or noncontact force?
contact
Is gravity contact to force?
Gravity requires no direct contact, if that's what you mean.
Is buoyant force a contact force?
The buoyant force is a contact force, exerted by contact with a liquid that displaces the liquid within a gravity field. No contact, no force.
What is a force that is non contact?
Gravity.
Is applied force a contact force?
Not necessarily, for instance gravity.
Is upthrust force a non contact force?
No, upthrust would not be considered a non-contact force. It would be considered a contact force. It is making contact with an updraft of air.
Is gravity force a contact force?
No - gravity acts across the vacuum of space - this is how the moon affects our tides.
What is considered a conservative force?
-gravity
Can gravity be considered a force?
Yes.
