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.

That happens because it takes 27.3 days both to rotate on its axis and to orbit Earth. We see either the full moon, half moon or no moon (new moon) because the moon reflects sunlight. How much of it we see depends on the moon's position in relation to Earth and the sun.Though a satellite of Earth, the moon, with a diameter of about 2,159 miles (3,475 kilometers), is bigger than Pluto. (Four other moons in our solar system are even bigger.).The moon is a bit more than one-fourth (27 percent) the size of Earth, a much smaller ratio (1:4) than any other planets and their moons.This means the moon has a great effect on the planet and very possibly is what makes life on Earth possible.hat happens because it takes 27.3 days both to rotate on its axis and to orbit Earth.
