    The earth supposedly moves at over 1000MPH. Since we are so small compared to the size of the planet we don't feel it moving and assumingly if the earth were the size of a huge rock only big enough to sit one person on, you'd be moving pretty fast.



    So could the same be possible with the universe as a whole? Is the entire universe moving millions of miles per hour and we're just to small as 4-8 foot tall human beings to feel see or recognize it?

    this got more and more retarded with each word by each person.



    But I will write NASA and inform them of your theory; that the universe is possibly moving really fast.

    After landing on Earth form a 7 day space flight Wubbo Ockels wrote this....



    "I stood up and it was frightening. For a few seconds I felt that I had just stepped into an elevator going up at an incredible speed. All my thoughts about my perception of gravity came back immediately. I just perceived it as real acceleration! What does this gravity do to us? We are all so used to it that it must give us a distorted view. We cannot escape it. The first few nights I woke up several times, switched to acceleration, the bed was pushing me upward, speed was building up. Then I switched back to the force feeling. I was tied down by my hands and feet.



    Somehow suddenly this unavoidable gravity, its incredible speed and the continuous passage of time seemed to fit together naturally. Time, seen as necessary for experiencing change, to come alive. "



    I thought it was interesting and somewhat relevant...
