Right now, you feel perfectly still. You are not. In the last five seconds, Earth carried you almost a hundred miles around the Sun, and that is one of the slowest ways you are moving.

The ground under you spins at up to a thousand miles an hour. Earth races around the Sun at 67,000. The Sun carries every planet around the Milky Way at roughly half a million. And the whole galaxy is moving through space at about 1.2 million miles an hour, toward something hidden behind its own disk.

So how fast are you really going? To find out, we follow a pendulum in Paris that caught the Earth turning, read a speedometer written into the afterglow of the Big Bang, and track down the Great Attractor, the Shapley Supercluster, and a vast empty region that seems to push us from behind.

Here is what we cover in this documentary:
