That's because we're moving with the earth.Someone has way too much free time on their hands.
The Earth is spinning 1000 mph at the equator.
The Earth is going around the Sun at 67,000 mph.
The Sun is orbiting the galaxy at 500,000 mph.
The galaxy is flying through space at about 2.2 million mph.
Now go outside and jump up off the Earth as high as you can over and over and see what happens.
If you're on a jet flying at 600 mph and you jump up, you'll land exactly as if you jumped in your back yard
