Well, no. Some of the motions are at least occasionally retrograde.Science tells us the following is true:
If the above is true, you and I are moving at a total of 2,012,000 miles per hour!
- At the equator, the earth’s circumference is approximately 24,874 miles.
- The earth rotates on its axis at the equator at approximately 1,000 mph.
- The earth orbits the sun @ 67,000 mph.
- Our solar system orbits the Milky Way galaxy @ 504,000 mph.
- The Milky Way galaxy moves through space @ 90,000 mph.
- Our Local Group moves through space at 1,350,000 mph.
That’s 3,353.333… miles per second!
Still moving, eh?!Well, no. Some of the motions are at least occasionally retrograde.
Well there's a horror movie waiting to happen!
Hillside houses overlook smoke-belching steel mills in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 1949.

Pittsburgh is a really beautiful city if you can overlook the grime (like most major cities have.) It's got a few rivers that intersect between house lined hills, and a lot of interesting older architecture, including lots of neat bridges. It's much less smokey today than it was when the steel operations were at their peak.I always liked a hillside house with a view.![]()
