Try and beat that Tom Brady!

Tom Brady already beat that.
TheAmbiguityShows
Its hard to imagine how fast its going relative to the earth. What else goes that fast that i can understand?
energ1ze
How much did it cost to get that football into space?
xAllenatorx
This is a $10000 football
nrockwell
Tom Brady could t beat that. But Aaron Rodgers could!

Really though that's an impressive low g spiral

football is only traveling the distance of the ISS. You might as well say if you toss a football west also travelling though universe

This Deflate gate thing is getting out of hand

Back in my day, I used to be able to throw a pigskin a quarter mile

It was thrown by NASA astronaut and mission specialist "Uncle" Rico Dynamite.

Then they should have known better than to confuse linear and angular units.
illogidog
The brought that football up in a rocket just to make that? How much would that have cost?

There's like no context that could make that not weird...
No. Orbits, like the rotation of the earth, should not be measured in linear units. RPM exists for a reason, please use it, illiterate scum.

That's not a fastball.

Relativity... the speed of an object can only be determined when given a frame of reference. This is sort of cheating :p
shelldonmorebees
But by using relativity as your argument you have confirmed that from the Earth's frame of reference, they are correct. Works both ways ;)
Alyssandre
Ok, hit me with your best shot

Inb4: earth is orbiting the sun, which moving through the Milky Way , moving through the galaxy in speeds I can't comprehend

And the galaxy is moving at crazy speeds relative to the microwave background radiation, the closest thing we have to a universal reference.

We need a gif of the opening scene of Malcolm in th middle S03E22. Right here and now!

Thinking exactly of that

At what point does relativity kick in so we no longer have an unbiased reference point for time?
LittleAldy

superben
There is no reference point since everything is relative to everything else. Hence, "theory of relativity"

After I break all the world records.

Good luck!
