Hi all!
If space isn't a true vacuum, why doesn't our Earth lose its speed due to friction?
I know that it's a near vacuum outside our atmosphere and the friction would be almost negligable. But in the course of a billion years, shouldn't it have an effect?
Why aren't we slowing down because of this? or are we?
