Newton posited that if you have two objects with two different masses, they have a gravitational force that will pull them together that diminishes as 1 over the square of the distance between them.
They have a gravitational force that will pull them together that diminishes as one over the square of the distance between them.
Stephen Hawking explained it like this, two pieces of matter that are close to each other have less positive energy than the same two pieces a long way apart, because you have to expend energy to separate them against the gravitational force that is pulling them together.

But observations show that most stars have a similar orbit speed around their galactic disk, however close or far out they are, which implies that there is some gravitational force at work that we can't see and so far don't understand.

In the 17th century, Isaac Newton discovered that the strength of the gravitational force decreases by the square of the distance between two objects, so if you're twice as far away, gravity is only one-fourth as strong.
AN UNPARALLELLED GRAVITATIONAL FORCE, RIGHT?
An unparalleled gravitational force, right?
and consider only the gravitational force on the ball
If a structure was so tall that it wound up at the altitude of a geostationary orbit, it would start to feel a new force, not just a gravitational force downward, but all of a sudden this new centrifugal force up and outward.
it would start to feel a new force, not just a gravitational force downward, but, all of
for the Q&A, and then a gravitational force
and then a gravitational force comes out of nowhere and knocks me out of the chair,
And probably the most common case of a net force making something move is the gravitational force.

but when the density of matter is extremely high, the gravitational force between particles is enormous.
