The orbital speed of earth is about 30 km/s. Our solar system moves in the Milky-Way Galaxy at about 200 km/s when measured with respect to the Galactic Reference Frame. It is estimated that the Milky-Way Galaxy itself moves at about 600 km/s when measured with respect to a Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) rest frame. The velocity of earth with respect to the CMB rest frame may be within a range of 400 km/s to 800 km/s. With astonishingly advanced levels of Technology available in 21st century, we should be in a position to measure the actual velocity of earth. I just want to know the current efforts being made by the Scientific Community in this direction. I am intending to start a Project to measure the velocity of earth with an accuracy of +/- 1 km/s.
