The Sun's gravity pulls the Earth towards the Sun but the Earth is also carried forward in its orbit by its momentum. Although the Earth curves towards the Sun continuously, it never falls in. The reason was discovered by Isaac newton.

Where on Planet Earth such that gravity fall up rather then fall down?
-- Wherever you are on earth, the force of gravity ... that is, your "weight" ... always pulls in the directiontoward the center of the earth. That's toward the ground between your feet.-- How do we know which way is "down" anyway ? We call "down" the direction in which your weightpulls, the direction in which a stone moves when you drop it. So by definition, whichever way gravitypulls, that's the direction you call "down".

How does loose rock and dust stay on the surface of the moon when we would not?
Although the gravitational field of the moon is much weaker than that of the Earth, it is still stong enough to cause rocks and dust to fall to the surface; they just fall more slowly than they would on Earth. And what makes you think that human beings would float away into space? It takes a rocket to get off of the moon. That's how the Apollo astronauts did it.
