People often see animations of earth rotating on TV in the opening of news shows, sporting events and other kinds of motion graphics, but those are just animations. And they are not realistic
The fact is that even though the Earth rotates at over 1,000 miles per hour at the equator (1,037.54 mph to be exact), and slower as you go north or south. If you were out in space far enough away from the earth to see the whole planet it would appear to turn so slowly that it would appear motionless.
The picture below shows how far the Earth turns in 1 hour. For a comparison imagine you’re looking at a clock. The hour hand doesn’t look like it is turning, but it actually turns twice as fast as the Earth.
