Rotation of solar system around milky way. Click the register link above to proceed. The planets in our solar system orbit revolve around the sun and the sun orbits revolves around the center of the milky way galaxy. Estimates of the length of one orbit range from 225 to 250 million terrestrial years.

U 10 kms radially inwards v 5 kms in the direction of galactic rotation w 7 kms northwards out of the plane of the galaxy. The solar systems orbit around the milky way galaxy if this is your first visit be sure to check out the faq by clicking the link above. The solar motion on top of its circular orbit about the centre of the galaxy which has a period of about 230 million years can be described by how fast it is going in three different directions.

Its spinning at 270 kilometers per second 168 miles per second and takes about 200 million years to complete one rotation according to the national radio astronomy observatory. The helical model our solar system is a vortex. Just like a pinwheel.

More mind blowing is that this mass of stars gas planets and other objects are all spinning. The solar system is traveling at an average speed of 230 kms 828000 kmh or 143 mis 514000 mph within its trajectory around the galactic center a speed. The galactic year also known as a cosmic year is the duration of time required for the sun to orbit once around the center of the milky way galaxy.

The andromeda milky way collision. If you take the semi major axis of the suns orbit to be 8 kiloparsecs and the orbital period to be 250 million years you can determine that the milky ways mass interior to the suns orbit is approximately 10 11 solar masses or 100 billion times the mass of the sun.
