Without it, we could not survive on Earth. Earth orbits the sun due to the gravity of the sun, which maintains us at a convenient distance from it to enjoy the sun's warmth and light. It keeps the air we need to breathe and our atmosphere in place. Our planet is held together by gravity.
The gravitational pull of the moon pulls the seas towards it, causing the ocean tides. Gravity creates stars and planets by pulling together the material from which they are made.
