    They must be attempting to integrate the rotation of the earth, the earth’s orbit, and the sun’s orbit around the galaxy.

      No, the rotation of the Earth is about 1600 km/h at the equator, which isn’t enough, and its orbit is over 100,000km/h which is way too much. This is about Mach 4, which is pretty fast, but not quite planetary orbit speed.
