Your True Speed Through Space Is Scarier Than You Think

Lie still tonight and everything agrees you are not moving — the bed, the quiet, the flat glass of water. And yet the floor is turning faster than sound, and our galaxy is drifting toward a place we cannot even see. So how fast are we really going? This is a slow climb up the ladder of that hidden motion, from the spinning ground to the true speed measured against the oldest light in the universe — a direction we can point to but never quite look at. Get cozy, turn the lights down low, and let this slow walk through the physics of everyday motion keep you company tonight.
