Added to that amazing revelation is the fact that the marble we crap on so frequently is hurtling through the vacuum of space at over 540,000 miles per hour, and that's just it's orbital speed. It doesn't include the miniscule speed we experience on the surface because of the Earth's rotation, nor the possibly humugous speed that we are zipping along doing our part in the expansion of the universe. We don't know relative to what, but we do know we are going there pretty quickly.
