Yes you are right, but it does illustrate the point that earth may move xyz miles a year. But the distance from where it is at the start of the year vs the end of the year is far less than xyz

A fire needs heat, fuel (something that burns), and an oxidizer. The most common oxidizer, by far, is oxygen, but several other elements can fill this role. Among others are fluorine, chlorine, and the other halogens.

Exactly.
Everything is relative when it comes to velocity.

If you compared to the Earth our velocity is 0. And everything else is moving very very fast.

Yeah, with those speeds, your pattern recognition of what you would expect to happen breaks down, there’s a reason relativity is so confusing to most people

Nope! Let’s say each neutrino is going 51% the speed of light, in opposite directions. If neutrino A were to look at neutrino B, it would only see B traveling at about 81% the speed of light. B would see A going the same speed, but in the other direction.

Now, if you’re on the ground watching these particles fly, you would see them move apart with the gap between them growing at 102% the speed of light. However, the individual objects would only move at 51% C, so nothing is violating physics

They would be moving away at the speed of light from any reference point. One neutrino would "see" the other moving away at the speed of light.

If you stood between them they would both be moving away at the speed of light from you. If you shot one away and then accelerated to the speed of light in the other direction then that neutrino would still be moving away at the speed of light.

Your image is from a debunked pseudoscientific woo animation.

https://slate.com/technology/2013/03/vortex-motion-viral-video-showing-suns-motion-through-galaxy-is-wrong.html

The solar system orbital plane’s angle to the galactic orbital plane is about 60 degrees, not 90, and the solar system plane doesn’t rotate as it would have to do to follow the “vortex” animation your image is a still of.

Our planet’s path along its galactic orbit is much more complicated than a corkscrew.

I'll like to add one more question, if everything is space is moving relative to each other ie the sun, moon, milky way, other galaxies.... then how do you find the absolute speed at which the earth moves forward in space?

This answer slaps. I had 3 "yeah but what about"s while reading that it proceeded to answer.

Recycling is complicated parties are working on it included the United States Advanced Battery Consortium—made up of General Motors, Ford, Stellantis, and the Department of Energy.

There is a frame in which everything is in the Hubble follow, basically moving with the redshift one would expect from the expansion of the universe. But within this flow you can independently move (e.g. you can get in a car and drive any direction). This will then deviate you from this flow. Though if not acted upon by another force, you'll eventually be "dragged" into this flow since the universe continues to expand in all directions.

In other words spacetime is kinda fucky

So a dust mite or a tardigrade is just as capable of feeling complex emotion as a crow? At some point the number of brain cells gets too few to have a lot of connections.

Yes, Veritasium covered those issues in a really interesting video earlier this year. My question wasn't really about the logistics of the measurement for the experiment, but rather if you could hypothetically get the measurements, could you calculate your own speed relative to light emanating from your position.

Those are from density waves, which I believe have a different period than orbital.
