how fast is earth moving around the sun

The Earth moves around the Sun at an average speed of about 29.78 kilometers per second, which is roughly 107,208 kilometers per hour (approximately 66,615 miles per hour). This speed varies slightly throughout the year because Earth's orbit is elliptical, ranging from about 29 km/s at its farthest point (aphelion) to about 30 km/s at its closest point (perihelion). This speed is fast enough to cover the diameter of the Earth in about 7 minutes and the distance to the Moon in roughly 4 hours.
