Telescopes don't just magnify things but also the Earth's rotation. ADVERTISEMENT Speeding along its orbit at around 66,600 mph the Earth takes 365 1/4 days to orbit the sun.

The Earth completes a full rotation in less than 24 hours: 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.09 seconds, to be more precise. In other words, what we think of as a day is not a 360 degree rotation of our ...
