Gravitational Effects
Gravitational effects are the influence of mass on the fabric of space and time, causing objects to be pulled toward each other. Think of gravity as a "curvature" in space created by mass, like the way a heavy ball placed on a trampoline causes the surface to dip. This curvature directs objects, including planets, stars, and light, to move toward each other. Gravity keeps planets orbit stars, causes objects to fall to the ground, and shapes the universe's large-scale structure. It's a fundamental force that governs how matter interacts and moves in the universe.
