Gravity is the same always. I think 9.8..
But when you going upward you are fighting gravity and going against gravity..so your accelerating object has that force.
But when you are going down gravity is a force that helps you.

Gravity is constant. It's the pull of an object on a smaller object. Unless your talking Singularity. Acceleration is the effect that gravity has on you in the median that you are traveling though ( Air, Water, Space, Liquid Hydrogen ) If you are moving upwards your are going in the opposite of gravity, and it would depend on the amount of energy you were using to escape the pull of gravity. Remember there is no up or down in Space.

I believe that the acceleration of gravity is a constant no matter what mass is being dropped. The mass might have a more gravitational pull if it is being elevated from the ground but other than that, there is no accerleration. Try dropping a golf ball and a piece of crumbled paperat the same level. It'll land at the same time because the gravitational pull is equal.

Your question is worded kinda weird. The FORCE of gravity decreases as the distance between two object increases.
Acceleration of an OBJECT should be faster (if the upward force is constant) as the force of gravity decrease.
