Gravity of Earth or (). Gravitational acceleration contributes to the total gravity acceleration, but other factors, such as the rotation of Earth, also contribute, and, therefore, affect the weight of the object. Gravity does not normally include the gravitational pull of the Moon and Sun, which are accounted for in terms of tidal effects. It is a vector (physics) quantity, whose direction coincides with a plumb bob. A non-rotating perfect sphere of uniform mass density, or whose density varies solely with distance from the centre (spherical symmetry), would produce a gravitational field of uniform magnitude at all points on its surface. The Earth
Sun and Moon (Middle-earth) the Narsilion, the "Song of the Sun and Moon". The published "Silmarillion" states that the Sun was created by the Vala Aulë; he and his people made a vessel to hold the radiance of the last fruit of Laurelin. The vessel of the sun was guided by Arien, a Maia. Names of the Sun amongst the Elves included Anar or "The Fire-golden", a name given to it by the Vanyar; Anor, the common name for the Sun in Sindarin, as seen in "Minas Anor" (later Minas Tirith) and the Gondorian province of "Anórien"; and Vása, or "Heart of Fire", a
