The discussion revolves around the concept of motion and the idea of whether anything can be considered truly stationary in the context of a constantly moving universe. It explores the relative velocities of Earth, satellites, and other cosmic entities, touching on theoretical implications and perceptions of motion.
Participants generally agree on the relativity of motion, but there are varying interpretations of what it means to be stationary in a moving universe. The discussion remains unresolved regarding the implications of these relative velocities.
The discussion does not resolve the complexities of defining "stationary" and relies on assumptions about relative motion without delving into the mathematical underpinnings of these velocities.
Much more, depending on the view. Earth is moving around the sun with 30km/s (relative to the sun). The solar system is moving around the galactic center with ~200km/s (relative to the galactic center). Relative to the cosmic microwave background, we are moving with ~400km/s.shinnsohai said:so even we're in stationary, we're moving with 8km/s
cool!
