as you know earth orbits around the sun. but very slowly.

therefore we cannot feel the earth moving. but if you lie outside and look up in the sky and close your eyes you might feel the earth moving a little bit.

Actually, you can experience the earth moving under your feet. Try to walk a straight line for some distance. Unless you are following a line on the ground, you will turn slightly to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and slightly to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This is due to the earth moving / spinning. This is called the Coriolis Effect. You see it every time you flush a toilet. The water spins clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and counter-clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.
