[[File:13_gravity546-1-.jpg|thumbnail|Gravity is a constant]]In real life, gravity is an attraction that matter has to other matter based upon mass. If an object has a larger mass, it will "pull" other objects towards it. The strength of this pull is directly affected by the mass of the matter of the central object.
Gravity in the real world always pulls objects together, regardless of the distance. However, the strength at which gravity pulls weakens as the distance from the object increases.

In Space Engineers, gravity is a linear force that pulls engineers in a certain direction. Gravity is not absolute, and the direction can be changed simply by changing the direction of the gravity source. Additionally, since it is linear, it can be stacked. The force of multiple instances of gravity affecting a single object can be measured by xn m/s<sup>2</sup>, where x is the force of a single instance of gravity and n is the number of forces acting upon that object.

Gravity in Space Engineers is currently caused primarily by [[Gravity Generator|Gravity Generators]]. Gravity can only be measured in a single linear direction. Because of this, it is not radial, like in real life. For example, if you are under a ship with a gravity generator, in real life you would be pulled towards the ship, but in Space Engineers, you will continue traveling downward until you leave the range of influence of the Gravity Generator.

The current gravity being enacted upon you can be measured using the [[Gravity HUD]].

As of update 01.025 there is an artificial mass (AM) block, which when powered is influenced by gravity. Each [[Artificial Mass]] block is influenced independently and has its own mass used for force calculation.
