From moon's POV, you were doing ~1,674.4 km/h or ~1,040.4 mi/h while you were typing that comment.
From sun's POV you were doing ~107,300 km/h or ~67,062 mi/h.
Speed is relative.

@hardstyle905 I am an adult, lol, and no you are not the only one who notices these kind of sad comments. You probably love viewing these videos of the shuttle at work and what it looks like from space. Cheer up.

Comments here are saddening. I gotta wonder if I'm the only adult on this video. sigh..

@nicky416dos No, they are not. At 37,000 mph they wouldn't even be in orbit anymore. The Earth's escape velocity is about 25,000 mph.

@Platinumpitviper are you stupid? It's all said in the video. They're checking the condition of the shuttle's heat shield. If it's damaged, the shuttle won't be able to land safely.

If I were piloting the shuttle, I think I'd flip like that through the whole flight just for the heck of it!
