Solar System Is "Bullet Shaped"

Libs demand thougher laws against Solar System.

[rocksblues]

So now we are a speeding bullet, with no specific destination?

[P8riot]

Are we SWC, FMJ or JHP?

Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour,
That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned,
A sun that is the source of all our power.
The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour,
Of the galaxy we call the 'Milky Way'.
Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars.
It's a hundred thousand light years side to side.
It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick,
But out by us, it's just three thousand light years wide.
We're thirty thousand light years from galactic central point.
We go 'round every two hundred million years,
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe.

The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding
In all of the directions it can whizz
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know,
Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is.
So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure,
How amazingly unlikely is your birth,
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space,
'Cause there's bugger all down here on Earth.

"The [prevailing] idea is that the environment just outside our solar system is patchy and turbulent," she added. "There are lots of stars exploding and dying outside our solar system."

Tough neighborhood.

Amazing those two ancient probes are still returning valuable data.

>>>The system travels within a bubble of solar wind—made of charged particles from the sun—called the heliosphere. <<<

This is the same "solar wind" of cosmic particles from the nun that has been shown to effect cloud cover on earth" and is suspected by many scientists as a major factor in Global Warming, and Cooling!

Al Gore and his friends have yet to acknowledge these recent findings.

Hey Al, it's the solar physics stupid!

The sun and its planets are known to streak through the void of space at approximately 62,000 miles (100,000 kilometers) an hour.

Relative to what? It is pointless to talk about speed (or velocity) unless you specify your frame of reference.

[Hebrews 11:6]

What is the caliber, Kenneth?
