The gravitation of the earth is due to the mass of the earth. If the earth was hollow, you know... more than just a small empty cave somewhere, the total mass of the earth would have to be alot lower and so the gravity would have to be a lot lower as well. If our planets mass was that much different, it would affect our orbit of the sun as well as the moons orbit around us. These masses and gravitational forces are correct if you assume a pretty dense core inside our planet. BTW, there is no 'THEORY' of hollow earth. To have a theory, you have to have a concept backed up by at least some observable facts. There are none to this Hollow Earth. Its simply a work of fiction. Nothing more. Now, stop watching Frodo! Ha!
