all the vectors

You walk down the street.

But, beneath you, the street, or rather the Earth, is moving. Much faster than you are walking. Your pace is an illusion of gravity, relevent only next to the other articles on the surface.

That's okay. The Earth is revolving around the Sun. A new and faster vector of movement.

Which in turn is just one of billions of stars in a small galazy know (to us) as the Milky Way, which spins like a top, giving us yet a new and more extreme vector.

Oh, did I mention that our galazy is just one of billions, all exploding out from a common starting point, on yet another vector?

And there are cosmologists who insist there are many, many universes...I wonder what their movement is int he quantum foam and how we could measure that?

All in all, we get around.
