Spaceship Earth?

It truly is amazing what God has created, and we struggle to understand His mechanics and His universe. It is a noble quest, as long as we remain mindful of the Creator.

Wonder how fuzzy (amount of resolution/decimal places/accuracy) the 600 kilometers per second is and could a change be detected in say 10-20 years?

That would be very interesting concerning expansion, acceleration of expansion and dark energy.

I’ve always wondered what effect(if any) our Solar System’s orbit around the center of our galaxy has on our planet, regarding ‘space weather’. I’m sure our Solar System has to move through some interesting areas within our Galaxy, and I don’t believe humans have been around for an entire ‘galactic year’, so no one really knows.

I’ve wondered for quite some time what the cumulative average vector a person standing on this rock has when you take all the motions into account. From what I understand, it’s considerable. Of course, you have to have a frame of reference, so whatever number you might come up with is not without some degree of doubt/imprecision.
