The Milky Way galaxy is moving through the universe at an estimated speed of about 600 kilometers per second (approximately 1.3 million miles per hour). This motion is influenced by the gravitational pull of nearby galaxies and the overall expansion of the universe. Additionally, the Milky Way is part of a larger structure known as the Local Group, which itself is moving towards the Virgo Cluster as part of the Laniakea Supercluster.

How fast does earth travel per hour?

When calculating the velocity of the earth there are three major vectors to calculate. First, the velocity of the earth as it orbits the sun. Second, the velocity as the solar system rotates around the galaxy. Third, the velocity that the Milky Way galaxy is moving through the universe. The Earth moves at 30 km/sec around the sun. The sun moves at 250 km/sec around the Milky Way and finally, the Milky Way is moving at about 300 km/second.

How fast are galaxies moving away from each other in the expanding universe?

Galaxies in the expanding universe are moving away from each other at speeds proportional to their distance, with more distant galaxies moving faster. This phenomenon is known as the expansion of the universe.

How fast does your universe travel through space?

Our universe does not travel through space in the traditional sense. Instead, objects within the universe, such as galaxies and planets, move relative to each other due to the expansion of space itself driven by dark energy. This expansion is happening at an accelerated rate, but it's not like a moving object in the traditional sense.

It depends on how fast it's moving and where it's passing through.


How fast is your Milky Way galaxy moving around the local group of galaxies?

300 km/s Edit: I've seen that estimate, but it's not straightforward. It's not like finding how fast the Earth orbits the Sun, for example. For one thing the largest galaxy, called Andromeda, is moving towards Earth.
