Colton, you bring up a common problem that is not so clear to the average viewer. Aside from the obvious cosmological problems with time travel, if one were to find a way to travel in the 4th dimension (time) and did not account for the all other dimensions, the first thing that really would happen is that the ground beneath you would speed away at 1,000mph. Why? Because that's how fast the Earth is revolving. Then you can factor in the direction and speed with with the planet is orbiting the sun (which is what you referred to). Then you can factor the direction and speed with which the solar system is traveling. Then you can factor the same variables for the galaxy's movement. We're all moving through "space" in a number of different ways in a number of different directions at the same time - all the time!
