The question cannot be answered because you need a fixed reference point against which to measure the speed (or velocity) of the earth through the universe. What would this be? The sun (or centre of the solar system)? But that travels round the centre of the Milky Way Galaxy. The centre of Milky Way? But that travels around the centre of our local cluster. The centre of our local cluster? No, because that travels round ... and so on.

Is earth traveling in thousands of miles per hour?

About 18 miles/sec around the sun, which is itself travelling about 30 miles/sec relative to local stars, which are traveling at about 300 miles/s relative to the galaxy centre, which is traveling at ? relative to local galaxies, which are traveling at... So the short answer is, yes.


How long would it take to reach the sun from earth traveling 500 miles per hour?

The Sun is about 93,000,000 miles from Earth So: 93,000,000/500 = 186,000 hours


How far is the moon from earth if a rocket ship is traveling at 60 miles per hour?

The moon's distance from Earth doesn't depend on the speed of the vehicle. It's still averages about 238,000 miles.


How many miles does the universe expand per second?

The universe expands 45 miles every second.


What is the size in square miles of the Universe?

First, you would measure the diameter of the Universe in miles, or its volume in cubic miles; but what would you want to measure in square miles?Second, the size of the Universe is not currently known. The observable Universe has a radius of about 46 billion light-years. Convert that to kilometers or miles if you like. One light-year is about 10 million million kilometers. But the entire Universe is probably much, much bigger.First, you would measure the diameter of the Universe in miles, or its volume in cubic miles; but what would you want to measure in square miles?Second, the size of the Universe is not currently known.
