Whenever the daily news, politics, climate change or the economy starts to get you down, consider these facts to help put things in perspective:

The Earth rotates at 1,000 mph (at the equator).

The Moon rotates around the Earth at 2,300 mph.

The Milky Way galaxy is moving toward Vega at 43,000 mph.

The Earth rotates around the Sun at 66,000 mph.

The Sun rotates in the MW galaxy at 483,000 miles per hour.

Now, doesn't that make everything else seem pretty trivial?
