<p><font color="#FF0000">If you think life on Earth moves too fast, imagine being perched on a planet that’s hurtling through space 400 times faster than our home world.</font></p>
<p>According to a new study, astronomers predict that “hypervelocity planets” are streaking through our Milky Way galaxy at up to 30 million miles <font color="#FF0000">(48 million kilometers) an hour—flung from the center of our galaxy by so-called gravitational slingshots.</font></p>
<p>Only subatomic particles such as cosmic rays are known to reach higher speeds in the Milky Way. (Related: “Lightning Creates Particle Accelerators Above Earth.”)</p>
