Gram-negative ((of bacteria) being of or relating to a bacterium that does not retain the violet stain used in Gram's method). Hyponyms (each of the following is a kind of bacteria): acidophil; acidophile (an organism that thrives in a relatively acid environment).
Gravity from the Sun reaches throughout the solar system and beyond, keeping the planets in their orbits. Gravity from Earth keeps the Moon and human-made satellites in orbit. It is possible to far away from a planet or star and feel less gravity, because gravity decreases with distance.But that doesn't account for the weightless feeling that astronauts experience in space.ravity from the Sun reaches throughout the solar system and beyond, keeping the planets in their orbits.

Shepherd moon. A shepherd moon (also herder moon, watcher moon) is a small natural satellite that clears a gap in planetary-ring material or keeps particles within a ring contained. The name is a result of the fact they limit the herd of the ring particles as a shepherd. Due to their gravitational effect, they pick up particles and deflect them from their original orbits through orbital resonance.
