   Hey, I need help understanding this concept. so the gravitational force is the "force of attraction between all masses in the universe". right? I was hoping if you could provide a more detailed definition.
   
   thanks.

   Somebody consult a good scientific major grade physics text to see the gravitational force equations in their differential form.
