Original Note:
The notion that one cannot feel the Earth’s movement at 800 miles per second is a misunderstanding of how motion is perceived. Earth does orbit the Sun at approximately 67,000 mph (800 miles/s), we don’t feel this speed because our bodies are also moving along with the Earth. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1599152/
