Gravity is a result from mass (i.e. the greater the mass an object has the more gravity force it will inflict on its surrounding objects). Taking your question literally, if there were no gravity, then there would be no Earth; as to have no gravity the mass of the body must be zero. Therefore you'd be left floating in space.
Now if all of a sudden (for some comical and unscientific reason) the Earth's gravitational pull would be switched off, our atmosphere would dissolve, airplanes would continue to fly up into space, and a simple jump would give you enough escape velocity to reach space. So you wouldn't necessarily "fall of the Earth", you'd more or less float away in a Zero-G environment (which happens to mean zero-gravity).
Gravity is the only reason. (Unless you're standing in concrete or glue.) ================================================= Another contributor joined in, with several alternative ways of saying the same thing: ... The Earth is round you cannot fall off. yes gravity is keeping you tied down to the surface of the earth.. if there was no gravity you would float away... you would never fall off the Earth. That is impossible, floating away though is what would happen if the gravitational force was no existent.
Gravity.
Gravity.
We don't fall off the Earth because of gravity. Gravity is the force that pulls objects towards the center of the Earth, keeping us and everything else on the surface.
Water doesn't fall off the Earth because of gravity. Gravity is the force that pulls everything towards the center of the Earth, keeping water and other objects in place on the planet's surface.
If you fall off the Earth, technically speaking, you would fall towards the center of the Earth due to gravity. The distance you would fall before hitting the Earth's core is approximately 4,000 miles (6,400 kilometers).
If gravity suddenly went away, we would fall off and float in space <DEADDD!!!> ....................................................... If there had never been such a thing as gravity, there would be no planets or stars to create life to fall off of them. They were formed and placed due to gravity.
We don't. gravity is slightly more on a non-spinning earth.
No, it is not possible to fall off the Moon. The Moon has gravity, although its gravity is weaker than Earth's. If someone were to jump off the Moon's surface, they would eventually fall back due to its gravitational pull.
Because earth doesn't have a tip and gravity hold everything down.
The boy cursed at gravity for ruining his lollipop by letting it fall to the ground.
Gravity keeps everything down to earth.
