I'll tell you how I learned about gravity.... by choosing to study Physics as a GCSE, and later reading numerous books by learned and intelligent men who try to bring enlightenment to the ignorant....

As a starter for 10 I'll link some sites that explain gravity below, starting with the ever popular (but occasionally incorrect Wikipedia)....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History...ational_theory

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton%...al_gravitation

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_principle

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introdu...ral_relativity

http://www.howstuffworks.com/question232.htm

http://csep10.phys.utk.edu/astr161/l...ewtongrav.html

http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/grav.html

There are many more sites online that can explain Gravity, but happy reading with the list above.
