Nothing. Gravity cannot be changed.

Detailed explanation-1: -The strength of gravity between two objects depends on two factors: the masses of the objects and the distance between them. The force of gravity between two objects is greater if the objects are closer together.
Detailed explanation-2: -Since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. So as the mass of either object increases, the force of gravitational attraction between them also increases.
Detailed explanation-3: -Gravitational force-an attractive force that exists between all objects with mass; an object with mass attracts another object with mass; the magnitude of the force is directly proportional to the masses of the two objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.
Detailed explanation-4: -Gravitational force is an attraction between masses. The greater the size of the masses, the greater the size of the gravitational force (also called the gravity force). The gravitational force weakens rapidly with increasing distance between masses.
