      Great question, but I am not entirely sure! It’d be quick though!

      I wasn’t sure either, but I’ve managed to do a bit of research for you and asked one of my scientist friends who studies Physics. The answer is apparently you would manage to do 7 and a half laps of the Earth in just one second!! Super super quick

      Wow thanks to Aaron’s physics friend for answering this question! However, I would not want to travel the world at this speed. I would want to explore!
