gravity
Gravity is the force that pulls all objects toward the Earth. It is a fundamental force of nature that is responsible for keeping everything on the Earth's surface.
The force of mutual gravitational attraction between the earth and any other object pulls the object toward the center of the earth, and pulls the earth toward the center of the object. Both pulls have equal strength.
The force that pulls an object toward earth also pulls the earth toward the object. The two forces are equal. Together, we refer to them as the force of gravity.
The exact scientific explanations of gravity are far too complex for this forum. The simple explanation is that every body that has mass attracts every other body that has mass. The more massive the two bodies are the more they attract each other. The more distant they are, the less they attract. Earth has a huge mass, billions and billions of times the size of a human. All of that taken together pulls everything and everyone toward the center of the earth. You may not be aware of it, but your body is also pulling the earth toward you. We can see the effect of a smaller body pulling on a larger one when we see the tides. The moon, a quarter of a million miles away, is affecting the water and the outer crust of the earth, even though the moon is only a little more than 1% of the earth's mass. Further out, tiny Pluto was discovered (in part) because it was affecting the orbits of the gas giant planets Neptune and Uranus.
The force that tries to pull the rocket back to Earth is gravity. This force is responsible for the rocket's weight and acts in the direction toward the center of the Earth.

Yes, that's what it does.
Everything on Earth is pulled downward towards the center by gravity, a force which arises from the mass of the Earth. This force keeps objects grounded and causes them to fall towards the surface when dropped.
Gravity is the force that holds you on the surface of the Earth. It is the attraction between all objects with mass, pulling everything toward the center of the Earth.
Gravity is the force that causes objects to move toward the center of the earth. This force is proportional to the mass of the object and the mass of the earth, and it decreases with distance from the center of the earth.
The force that pulls an object toward earth also pulls the earth toward the object.The two forces are equal. Together, we refer to them as the force of gravity.
Gravity is the force that pulls all objects toward the center of the Earth. This force is caused by the mass of the Earth creating a gravitational field that attracts objects towards the center of the planet.
Gravity is the natural force that causes an object to move toward the center of Earth. This force is proportional to the mass of the object and the mass of Earth, and inversely proportional to the distance between the object and the Earth's center.
The Earth and you are attracted to the centers of each other by a pair of equal gravitational forces. The size of the force attracting you toward the center of the Earth is your "weight" on Earth. The size of the force attracting the Earth toward the center of you is the Earth's "weight" on you. They are equal.

Gravity is the force that pulls everything towards the center of the Earth. This force is created by the mass of the Earth and all objects on or near its surface.
