________________ hours the earth going over the distance of about 2 to 2.5 lacs of miles between the Moon and the earth will collide with the Moon before the Moon comes out of 8000 miles long orbit of the earth. (230000 66000 = 3.25 hours approximately.) If the earth rotated then on the 7th or 8th or 9th day of the black half of any month the earth would collide with the Moon, just as anything that comes between two rails collide with the railway engine. If the earth is actually moving, this is a matter for serious neutral consideration.( See Fig. 3) SELF EVIDENT PROOFS FOR THE EARTH NOT ROTATING Science shows 3 kinds of motions of the earth: (i) Daily Motion: for The earth moves on its axis. This is called its 'rotation'. Its velocity is 1000 miles per hour. (ii) Yearly Motion : Being attracted by the force of gravitation the earth moves round the Sun. This is called, its 'revolution'.Its velocity is 66,000 miles per hour. (iii) Motion with the Sun : The Sun itself takes with it, its whole family (of Mercury, Venus, the earth and all other planets ) round a centre named Shouri, with the same velocity as its own. This is the motion with the Sun. Its velocity is 7,20,000 miles per hour. Those three motions finish one whole cycle of 24 hours, 365 days, and 20 crores of years.
