Gravitation Theory

Gravitation theory, primarily articulated by Isaac Newton and later refined by Albert Einstein, describes the force that attracts objects with mass towards each other. Newton's law states that the force depends on the masses involved and their distance apart, explaining phenomena like falling apples and planetary orbits. Einstein's General Relativity expanded this understanding by proposing that mass curves the fabric of space-time, leading objects to follow curved paths, which we perceive as gravity. Together, these theories help explain everything from why we stay grounded on Earth to the orbits of planets around the sun.
