The fact that we’re moving around the galaxy at roughly 500,000 mph right now and feel absolutely nothing is wild.

There's also the planetary precession. So, one more axis of motion of the planet. "Music of the spheres."

We’re not simply “orbiting the Sun” while the universe stands still. 😄 The Sun carries the entire Solar System around the Milky Way, while the planets dance around the Sun at the same time. It’s a beautiful cosmic choreography—and somehow, we’re all traveling through it without feeling a thing. 🌌

The video argues the "flat loop" model is wrong, advocating for a 3D corkscrew path instead. While the helix model better represents vertical oscillations, describing the traditional view as "wrong" ignores its utility as a localized frame of reference. Regardless, our journey is clearly more complex than once taught

From God's POV all is like a snow globe that must look fascinating

If you’re going to be explaining how things work, at least show relevant data/images/pics for the visual learners instead of just random generated space pictures that have nothing to do with the subject you’re trying to explain.
