Sooo. I was wondering :

There's a continuous sunset around the world. Could you imagine a trip to see the sunset non stop ? Theoretically, what speed would such a trip require ?

My theory would be that you need to position yourself where the sun is setting, and then go at the speed of earth's rotation backwards, to always stay on this exact spot where the sun is setting. So, 1700km/h if you're on the equator.

Is this the right calculation ?

or:You would have to travel 25,133 miles or 40,212 km in 24 hours. That equals 1047 mph or 1676 km/h. You would not really be admiring the sunset at that speed.
