NASA's spinning earth ball doesn't make sense to me.
Diameter of the Earth

Circumference calculator

Therefore, for the earth to complete one full rotation (24 hours):
Approx: 40,000klm divided by 24 hours = 1,666.66klm per hour
Speed of sound
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_sound
Earth is rotating at a speed of 1,666klm per hour.
The speed of sound is 1,235klm per hour
Conclusion: The Earth is rotating at a speed faster than sound.
How come we don't get slung off?
