Does the planet actually rotate around its axis and moves ahead in its orbit just the same amount of kilometers. It is easy to count when we know velocity of the planet in its orbit = a, and the velocity it rotates around its axis = b. We just divide a / b. It seems like the rocky planets and the gas planets move using different kind of method. The rocky planets move so fast like they were shot by a gun or a Cannon. But gas planets really rotate and move almost the same amount of kilometers. They actually do not move ahead at all but they just rotate around their axis. Mercury a = 47, 87 / b = 0.0030244 that is 15 827. 446 so It rotates one kilometer and at the same time moves ahead 15 827.446 kilometers Venus a = 35.02 / b = 0.00181 that is 19 341.195 Earth a = 29.8 / b = 0.465013 that is 64.084 Mars a= 24.077 / b = 0.2406 that is 100.035 Jupiter a = 13.069 / b = 12.58 that is 1.0389 Saturn a = 9.67 / b = 9.87 that is 0.979493 Uranus a = 6.83 / b = 2.588 that is 2.641 Neptune a = 5.47 / b = 2.685 that is 2.040 Pluto a = 4.749 / b = 0.0134 that is 352.055 Ceres a = 17.882 / b = 0.093 that is 191.708 Vesta a = 19.34 / b = 0.093 that is 206.65 Pallas a = 17.65 / b = 0.0636 that is 277.289 So for instance Jupiter when rotates 1 km at the same time moves ahead 1.0389 km. So It moves ahead by rotating?

Because the Milky Way Galaxy is mainly almost all Gas too I have tried to calculate how it rotates around and moves ahead. Is It just the same : one kilometer around its axis and one kilometer ahead in the space. I have used an estimated time when Milky Way and Andromeda collide too and it seems like : One kilometer ahead = one kilometer around. It is kind of strange how gas planets and galaxies float through space just by spinning around.
