Gravity is a FACT. If you drop something, it falls. It can be tested. It can be proven.

Do you think the theory of gravity says that if you drop something, it falls? That people didn't know that before Isaac Newton?

Disney physics. Newton discovered that apples fall from trees.

Again, gravity is what hurls the Moon away from the Earth. Not all things subject to gravity actually fall, some spring upward. Isn't science wonderful.
