Definitely fast enough to count as the highest -
velocity body motion.
Not exact matches
As long as we focus attention upon
bodies of some magnitude and upon
motion of moderate
velocity, the laws of science developed by the Newtonians hold true.
Perceptible
motions of our
bodies and of surrounding objects are very slow with respect to the
velocity of light and gravitation — a
velocity which for us is practically infinite.
In addition to the orbital
motion caused by the transiting planet, we detect a possible linear trend in the radial
velocity of KELT - 22A suggesting the presence of another relatively nearby
body that is perhaps non-stellar.

You can create a model of six planets whose orbits produce eccentricities in each others» paths, because we have well - formulated laws of the
motions of
bodies in space and the influence of gravity, and we can actually see planets and know their position,
velocity and mass.
The second part of Newton's first law of
motion states, «A
body in
motion at a constant
velocity will remain in
motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an outside force.»
