HOW FAR HAVE YOU TRAVELED THROUGH SPACE?

How This Calculation Works

Planet Earth orbits the Sun at an average speed of 29.78 kilometers per second (about 107,200 km/h or 66,600 mph). Every single year, you sweep through an orbit spanning roughly 940 million kilometers.

Simultaneously, our entire Solar System orbits the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy at approximately 230 km/s, and the Milky Way itself drifts through the cosmos at ~370 km/s relative to the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation.
