No. The international date line is a zig-zag line between the earth's poles. It has no particular

connection to the forces of gravity.

Gravity behaves exactly the same way at every point on earth. Wherever an object may be,

there are equal forces attracting it and the earth toward each other. The forces are proportional

to the product of the object's mass and the earth's mass, and inversely proportional to the square

of the distance between their centers. Since the earth's diameter at the equator is slightly larger than

its diameter through the poles, objects at the poles are slightly closer to the center of the earth, so

the mutual gravitational forces are slightly larger there.

Is there gravity at the international dateline?

Yes, there is gravity at the International Date Line, just as there is everywhere on Earth. The International Date Line is an imaginary line that runs from the North Pole to the South Pole, primarily along the 180° longitude, and it affects time zones rather than physical properties like gravity. Gravity varies slightly across the Earth due to factors such as altitude and the Earth's shape, but it remains present at the Date Line, similar to other locations on the planet.
