‼️ WHAT JUST HAPPENED?! WE'RE ON OUR 20TH LAP AROUND THE MILKY WAY The Earth has never returned to the same point in space. The Sun is racing around the Milky Way at roughly 828,000 km/h, carrying the entire solar system with it. We've completed only about 20 galactic laps in the 4.6 billion years since our solar system formed, and the dinosaurs only appeared around the time of our previous lap. @PaddyNey investigates a viral post claiming our planet travels through space in a giant corkscrew. Most of its numbers actually check out, but the real picture is even stranger: we're spinning, orbiting, circling the galaxy and moving relative to other galaxies all at once. And the biggest twist? Physics doesn't even give us a fixed point in space to return to. 00:56 - Is any of it actually true? 03:53 - The corkscrew 05:51 - It's actually stranger
