text: Most other universal constants are known to far higher precision but because gravity is so weak, scientists must design incredibly sensitive equipment to try to measure its effects.
text: Black holes pack so much mass into such a small volume that their gravity is strong enough to keep anything, even light, from escaping.
text: The gravitational force between the Earth and the molecules of gas in the atmosphere is strong enough to hold the atmosphere close to our surface.
text: Gravity is also one of the four fundamental forces which govern all interactions in nature (along with weak nuclear force, strong nuclear force, and electromagnetism).
text: Chris Klimek of The Washington Post called the song "haunting" and stated that "Gravity is strong evidence that Bareilles's songcraft may yet warrant the stardom she's attained.
text: This is because the gravitational force is extremely weak as compared to other fundamental forces.[d]
text: Gravity is the weakest force in the everyday world yet it is the strongest force in the Universe.
text: If we live on a brane (as hypothesized by brane theories), this "leakage" of gravitons from the brane into higher-dimensional space could explain why gravitation is such a weak force, and gravitons from other branes adjacent to our own could provide a potential explanation for dark matter.
text: Researchers assume that such entities attract one another using the same gravitational rules as planets and stars, but because gravity is so weak, it is difficult to know for sure.
text: For anyone interested: Gravity is weak because of the electron.

text: Gravity in space exists, but is very weak.
text: The problem is that gravity is too weak.
text: So essentially, the question "Why is gravity so weak?" is the same as, "Why doesn't the Higgs boson have more mass?
text: Whereas research in particle physics proceeds in large part by examining the data collected in large particle accelerators, which are able to smash particles together at sufficiently high energies to probe the properties of atomic nuclei in the fallout, gravity is so weak that there is no physically realistic way to do a comparable experiment that would reveal properties at the energy scales at which quantum gravitational effects are expected to be important
text: The problem is that gravity is extraordinarily weak.
text: In other words, gravity is almost as strong in low-earth orbit as on the surface.
text: But when the gravity is very strong, the ellipse moves from orbit to orbit and makes a rosette shape.
text: The gravity on the inside of the circle is so strong that nothing can escape
text: In fact, at an altitude of 400 kilometres (250 mi), equivalent to a typical orbit of the ISS, gravity is still nearly 90% as strong as at the Earth's surface.
text: That's why places like black holes and the early universe are so compelling to theorists: They're places where gravity is both small and strong, and by studying those scenarios, hopefully we can get a glimpse of how to correctly treat gravity.
text: A black hole is a region of spacetime where gravity is so strong that nothing—no particles or even electromagnetic radiation such as light—can escape from it.
text: The gravitational force between the Earth and the molecules of gas in the atmosphere is strong enough to hold the atmosphere close to our surface.
text: Gravity is also one of the four fundamental forces which govern all interactions in nature (along with weak nuclear force, strong nuclear force, and electromagnetism).
