Moreover, the sun, along with its planet-family, is traveling in a gigantic orbit within the Milky Way galaxy at a speed of some 600 thousand miles per hour. If an orbital trip should be completed, it would take 200 million years to achieve one revolution. The earth is spinning on its axis at the rate of 1,000 m.p.h. It travels a distance of 595 million miles in the year it takes to make the entire journey. Orbital motion keeps the planets from crashing inward into the sun.
Modern science has no answer.
Since matter does not possess the ability to move itself, one must assume that when the stars and planets were made, someone started them moving. Movement demands a Mover. Balance The balance that keeps the planets adjusted correctly in their relationship to the sun is truly astounding. It could, very easily, if not balanced properly. Nobody really knows.
