A brilliant animation shows how we're floating through space at dizzying speeds

 

If you've ever wondered about your place in the vast enormity of the universe, this video is for you. In its latest video, Kurzgesagt, which is known for its top-notch animations paired with existential questions and satisfying answers about our universe, takes you on a journey showing how we are hurtling through space at breakneck speeds.

 

The video is wonderfully animated and explores the question of "Where are you?". In the video description, Kurzgesagt writes, "Where is this place you are occupying? Somewhere in a room, maybe in a city on a continent on a planet orbiting a star in a galaxy among billions. But… where is all of that? While this may feel like a daft question, it turns out that the concept of an absolute position is something humans made up."

 

If you're curious to learn the answer and see the dizzying animations, make sure you watch the video embedded above, and as always, enjoy.
