Once it hits the Earth's surface, it will stop falling.
A: because earths gravity cannot be harnessed forever unless the earth is moving with you. B: because earths gravity is not strong enough to pull you along unless you are in space as friction from air resistance will stop you.
what your talking about is terminal velocity, which is when the downward force of gravity (Fg)equals the upward force of drag (Fd). This causes the net force on the object to be zero, resulting in an acceleration of zero

Mainly gravity, and air resistance.
It does ! The amount is insignificant. Look at it another way, the moon is always falling toward the Earth ... and the Earth is always falling toward the moon. They are both accelerating.
Earths gravity acts on everything from its center of gravity to everything else's center of gravity.
17,500 miles per hour puts the shuttle in orbit. BUT the gravity is still there. I'm fact there is about 90% of the gravity while the shuttle is on the ground. That great rate of speed is required to keep the shuttle from falling back to earth. At that speed the shuttle is basically falling around the planet.
That is not English; that is not physics. Generally speaking, the speed of the satellite and gravity cancel each other. As the satellite slows (friction), gravity wins.
The sun gravity is stronger
The sun gravity is stronger
Both mercury and mars have a gravity which is around 38% of earths. Mercury's gravity is 37.8% of earths, Mars' gravity is 37.7% of earths.
the gravity on venus is about 90.4% of earths
