WHY DON'T WE FEEL EARTH MOVE?... But really?

You won’t be surprised if we tell you that our planet and everything on it keeps spinning, will you? The speed of rotation is about 1,675 kilometers per hour (1,040 mph) at the equator, and it means that right now you're travelling at about 465 meters per second, or a little less if you're located closer to one of the poles. So why don’t you feel it?
Today Smart is the New Sexy is going to explain you why Earth seems motionless to you and how to capture this motion.

Why can't we all feel it?
 The answer is simple and it is hidden in the nature of Earth's movement. We’d feel it if Earth suddenly stopped spinning. Then it would be a feeling similar to riding along in a fast car, and having someone press the brakes unexpectedly!
Imagine being on an airplane when it's smoothly travelling at a constant speed and constant altitude. As long as the ride is going smoothly, you can almost convince yourself you’re not moving. A jumbo jet flies at about 800 km per hour (about 500 miles per hour), or about half as fast as the Earth spins at its equator. But, while you’re riding on that jet, if you close your eyes, you don’t feel like you’re moving at all. And when the flight attendant comes by and pours coffee into your cup, the coffee doesn’t fly to the back of the plane. That’s because the coffee, the cup and you are all moving at the same rate as the plane.
Now think about what would happen if the car or plane wasn’t moving at a constant rate, but instead speeding up and slowing down. Then, when the flight attendant poured your coffee … watch out!
