The Earth rotates on its axis once approximately every 24 hours, which is the basis for our day-night cycle. However, in terms of its orbit around the sun, it takes about 365.25 days to complete one full revolution. This rotation speed at the equator is roughly 1,670 kilometers per hour (1,040 miles per hour). Thus, while the Earth spins quickly, its orbital journey around the sun takes significantly longer.
