"Every second, the Earth covers 34 more kilometres in its orbit around the Sun, which itself speeds 269 kilometres in its orbit around the centre of the Milky Way, whilst the whole Galaxy moves 121 kilometres closer to the Andromeda Galaxy. The Local Group, containing the Milky Way and Andromeda, have moved away from the nearby Virgo cluster of galaxies by 965 kilometres in that second.
Over the average human lifespan of 70 years, the Sun will have carried you on a journey 500 billion kilometres through the Galaxy, and the Galaxy will have taken you 267 billion kilometres closer to Andromeda."
