Besides spinning on its axis and rotating around the Sun, the Earth also follows the Sun's movement through the Milky Way galaxy. The animation is a video screenshot from Voyage through The Solar System version 1.20 (1989) and shows the earth´s true motion in spirals.

"I would say that the angle is 45 degrees, the 60 degrees you mention comes from the motion of the Solar system berycentre about the barycentre of the Solar sytem about the Barycentre of our local star group"
The 60 degrees that I mention comes from a "Scientific American" aticle written by Dr. James van Allen.

@followingtheplanets I would say that the angle is 45 degrees, the 60 degrees you mention comes from the motion of the Solar system berycentre about the barycentre of the Solar sytem about the Barycentre of our local star group, spirals within spirals and of course, the spiral of the local group around the Galaxy and the Galaxy spiralling around local Galaxies.

I will add that the ecliptic is inclined by 60 degrees to the sun's instantaneous velocity (its direction in space), and that the sun moves at 19km/sec. In you video at 1:00, it is March when the earth is on the right and September when it is on the left.

This is a fairly new concept. Common sense. However, is one to believe that the earth is trapped in rotation around the sun by "gravity" that is 93 million miles away? Maybe instead of gravity it''s GLUONS.

which mean they are bound to collide sometimes in the future if there's an external interference? let say comet?????

@olga2415 it may be spelled precession...

This movement is called the procession of the equinoxes; somewhat like a top that is spinning and travels as it spins, only this is timed to the speed at which all is moving

@halfhuman25 the sun is doing the same thing, and everything else lager in relation to that, and everything smaller, all things exist this way, all energy, all multidimensional interwoven vortices

it also goes 3 dimensionally in a spiral or a vortex motion.
