Can earth attract other planets?

Yes. Every thing that has mass (on Earth, we call it 'Weight') attracts every other thing with mass. It is correct to say that any two things with mass attract each other. For instance, the Earth pulls on you because of the force of gravity, but you pull on the Earth right back - only by a tiny amount, but still . . . The Earth and Sol, the Sun, attract each other, and both attract the Moon. The same way, Earth and, say, Mars or Venus attract each other, but only by a relatively small amount due to the large distances between them. +++ Mass is not weight! Whatever the Space Station's mass if it could be landed, it has the same mass in space, but there it is weightless, or practicably so.
