This is actually a physics problem, but the force of Gravity keeps us from flying into the sky. Gravity is the force by which a planet or other body draws objects toward its center. This force gives us a tendency to remain on the ground and not to float off into the atmosphere.

Answer:

Gravity.

Explanation:

Gravity is what holds the planets in orbit around the sun and what keeps the moon in orbit around Earth. The gravitational pull of the moon pulls the seas towards it, causing the ocean tides. Gravity creates stars and planets by pulling together the material from which they are made.
