Fall Asleep To Science | The 4 Ways Earth Moves

Earth isn't just orbiting the Sun. It is simultaneously performing 4 distinct types of movement at breakneck speeds. From spinning on its axis (creating day and night) to wobbling like a dying top (Precession), and wildly enough, our entire Solar System is surfing through the Milky Way at 828,000 km/h. This means one mind-blowing fact: We never return to the same spot in space. Our path is not a closed circle, but an eternal corkscrew spiral. This video breaks down the orbital mechanics behind this chaotic yet orderly dance. _________________________________________________________________ Fall Asleep to Astronomy Science for dreamers and night thinkers.
