Question:
How fast does the earth travel around the sun?
Answer:
Well a geeky professor might answer the question like this: (forgive the sound of the chock on the chock-board and my modern day Google research antics)
"The
approximate circumference of the "circle" earth travels = pi x diameter".
"Now, we all know that the distance from earth to sun is about 93
million miles
total circumference = (distance) = pi x 93,000,000, x 2 = 584,336,234
miles
hours in a year (approx) = 365.25 * 24 = 8,766".
"So, in miles per hour... that is
584,336,234 / 8,766 = 66,659 mph (approx)".
Now I have a question.
Think of the last time you were outside
looking up on a super clear night at the vast wonders set in front of you. Did
you happen to notice anything between you and the stars other than space dust
and maybe a satellite or two? Is there a Space Helmet or Windshield obstructing
your vision? Did you hear the one-way directional control valve opening and
closing every time you drew in Oxygen from you Life Support tanks?
No.
OK, So lets say that our Planet IS our
Spaceship, which means we are all doing what we normally do like
walking, talking, breathing, praying, sleeping, driving, playing and /or
working
all on the OUTSIDE of our spaceship "The USS Planet Earth"
which just so happens to be
traveling at an astronomical wind-sheering speed of approx. 67 thousand
miles per hour WITHOUT a protective
mask or space suit!!!
With that said, this can only mean that our atmosphere
IS
our protective mask and space suit.
Why then, would we want to continue to pollute our atmosphere and destroy forests from our only means of protection and our only air supply?
That is like being in space, putting your helmet on the floor and taking your Moon-Rock pick hammer out and pounding the daylights out of it's face shield, shattering it to smithereens, connect the oxygen hose to the exhaust hose of the vacuum cleaner, don the suit and helmet, and then proceed to do a little space walking.
What if your Co-Buddy-Astronaut found it and started to put it on to use? You would try to stop them right? But what if it was a loved one? Should it matter? What if it was your child?
There is another problem, see, our children and/or grandchildren are
destine
to become the new crew members and SPACE TREKKERS OF THE FUTURE
on our Space Ship. It's the only one we have to give them. We
need to give it to them in the best condition we can so they can
continue THE
HUMAN JOURNEY THROUGH SPACE for many generations to come.
We have two eyes, two ears but like our hearts and brains we only have ONE SPACE SHIP.... ONE USS PLANET EARTH. Until our future generations find other spaceships out there to add to their fleet, we will need to preserve and protect this one.
There is NOW something we all can do to help. Plus it comes with a respectfully handsome compensations plan.
Go to: Our Space Ship USS Planet Earth
You will be amazed as to how much individuals can do to help with this creative program and the personal rewards they could acquire for doing so.
"Welcome Aboard!!"
