Why planets are round?

Gravity, a powerful invisible force, pulls everything on a planet towards its center. This pulling force squeezes the planet equally from all sides, making it form a round shape.

⭐ Bonus fact: The Earth's gravity even pulls on you, which is why your feet stay on the ground!
