The story of the apple falling on Isaac Newton's head is a popularized version of the events that led him to develop his theory of gravity. Newton's law of universal gravitation describes the attraction between objects with mass, like the apple and Earth, and explains how the moon stays in orbit around Earth.
Isaac Newton discovered gravity by observing an apple falling from a tree, which led him to formulate his law of universal gravitation. He realized that the same force that causes objects to fall to the ground also governs the motion of planets in space.
Sir Isaac Newton is credited with conducting experiments and developing the theory of gravity in the late 17th century. His work on gravity culminated in his famous publication "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica" in 1687.
Yes, a golf ball will fall when dropped on the Moon due to the presence of gravity. However, the acceleration of gravity on the Moon is weaker than on Earth, so the ball will fall more slowly.
Actually there is gravity (non-zero gravity) in space. You just don't feel it when you are in free fall. For more details, read some articles (for example, in the Wikipedia) about "free fall".
He watched lots of apples fall from lots of apple tree, then he thought 'Why is this happening?' Then he discovered gravity.
sir Isaac newton found the rules of gravity by seeing an apple fall.

Questions like this want to make me cry.... No he did not invent gravity he obsurved the apple fall and as a result he came up with the theory of gravity
Sir Isaac Newton in the 1660s :- he told the story of watching an apple fall from a tree and it has been embellished over the years to it hitting him on the head
An apple.
Sir Issac Newton
Gravity. It falls when it gets heavy.
Newton reasoned that the force of gravity pulling the apple towards the ground was the unbalanced force causing the apple to fall.
He stated that seeing an apple fall made him think about gravitation and why things fall. However he never said it fell on his head.
He watched an apple fall off a tree and began studying what eventually came to be called gravity
The apple fell near Newton, not directly on him. This event is often used as a symbolic representation of how Newton's observation of the falling apple led to his development of the theory of gravity.
