All bodies in the universe are attracted to each other through the gravitational force. The bigger the object, the stronger that force is. But gravity or curved space doesn’t always make things fall down. Some smaller objects also remain in orbit for a long long time after we leave them there.
Earth’s Moon is also bound to our planet via the same force. That is also the reason why the Moon orbits around Earth, and does that non-stop. This fact seems pretty straightforward to most of us. But have you actually thought, what is the reason why our natural satellite doesn’t fall right on our heads? Or, if you have thought about this, how would you explain this physical mechanism to a child?
It is all possible because of the concept of gravitation pull and scientists have conducted an experiment. The depicted experiment is based on a similar demonstration that explains space-time warping.

As far as I know, the Moon is actually moving away from us.
