The Earth's gravity is indefinite. The earth will always present a force on a spacecraft, no matter the distance. However, the force could become very very small with increased distance.

A space craft can go past the point where earth's gravity will not cause them to fall back to Earth. Some crafts stay in orbit, so they are still close enough to the earth to stay "locked" into its gravitational pull, but other crafts such as the Titan have gone very far beyond.

Any object with mass has an escape velocity. The escape velocity is the velocity at which an object must travel in order to escape the gravitational pull of the massive object. The escape velocity of the Earth is 11.186 kilometers per second (a little over 25,000 miles per hour). If an object can travel at that speed away from the Earth, it will travel away from the Earth and it won't be pulled back in.

Why does the space never end?

Can you think of something without an end?Well there is one space.. Why does space never ends?think about space having an end and a spacecraft get crashed.Space never ends because of the gravity.space doesn't have the gravity we have on earth, but it does have one, it has the gravity to never end.You're not with me, are you?this is why think about you going to space and you are youtside space without being in the spacecraft with your milk and it just spread and went all the way around. This milk is never going on the ground because space don't have gravity right? even if the milk was headed on the ground it cant touch the ground if space had one because there is no gravity there is no ground
