22:52:00 <Axeman> on the equator a human is spinning with the planet at 1670 km/r
22:53:00 <Axeman> earths speed in its orbit of the sun is 107,000 km/r
22:54:00 <Axeman> km/hr
22:54:00 <Axeman> km/h <-- lets go with this one
22:55:00 <Axeman> the plane of the solar system(all planets) moves through space UP basically north, at 828,000 km/h
22:58:00 <Axeman> now for the big one, the milky way galaxy is moving through space at 1.89 million km/h
23:01:00 <Axeman> imagine an asteroid sitting still, not moving in relation to all other objects, and you on the equator of the earth were to "encounter" said asteroid. add all of those speeds together for a round sum of a "shittonne" of kinetic creation. the words "bugsplat on the cosmic windscreen" wouldnt do that event justice. at least you wouldnt feel it.
