Gravity is reduced by the inverse of the square of the distance between the two bodies. Double the distance reduce the gravity by one quarter.

What effect does distance have on gravity?

Gravity is governed by an "inverse square" relationship. This means gravity gets exponentially weaker the farther away you get. If I am 4 miles away from the center of the Earth, I will experience 1/16th the gravity that someone 1 mile away will experience. I am 4x farther away, but I get 16x less gravity.


What happends if your in zero gravity?

You explode. Because the pressure inside the body is much greater than outside the body, the body expands until it explodes outwards.

Does weight - force of gravity - decrease or increase as you move away from the earth by distance squared?

As you move away from the Earth by distance squared, the force of gravity (weight) decreases. This is because gravity follows an inverse square law, where the force of gravity weakens as the distance between two objects increases.
