I don't think there was a falling apple. Newton just tried to explain gravity as not just acting on things here on earth, but acted all thru the universe, specifically to the moon. According to the first law of motion, the moon should move away from the earth on a straight line. Why did it not do so? Newton figured that gravity was strong enough that the moon, like an apple is falling toward the earth. The difference is that the moon is moving at a speed that allows it to 'fall' into circular motion and orbit the earth. Newton calculated, based on the distance from earth to the moon that gravity, although it becomes weaker over distance, was strong enough to hold the moon in orbit.
