The Earth orbits the Sun. The Sun orbits the common center of mass of the Milky Way galaxy as a whole, and it carries the Earth along with it. The Milky Way is moving in the general direction of the Andromeda galaxy, and both of them, and the other galaxies in the Local Group (and beyond, to a distance of about 60 million parsecs) are moving towards the Great At tractor.
