Well, isn't that just a beautiful mystery of the universe? The solar system gracefully moves through space at an average speed of about 515,000 miles per hour as it orbits around the Milky Way galaxy. Just imagine all the happy little stars and planets dancing together in harmony, creating a wondrous celestial masterpiece for us to enjoy from down here on Earth.

Does the solar system orbit around the universe?

The solar system orbits around the center of our galaxy, the Milky Way. The Milky Way orbits with a number of other galaxies around the center of our galactic cluster, called the Local Group. The Local Group rotates in the Virgo Supercluster (a cluster of galactic clusters). It is unclear if superclusters rotate around anything.
