yes newtons laws explain gravity and its effects "an object in motion must stay in motion unless acted upon by another force"
there's no mystery as to what gravity does, the mystery is to what it can do fully physics are flawed in aspects that scientists need to figure out before anyone can say 100% this is what gravity is but people can still say this is what gravity is to us as it relates to us which is what Isaac newton figured out when it came to gravity and other forces
gravity is an observation of an effect between two objects as they interact with eachother
