Like we calculated, a small object must be moving several trillion
times the speed of light to accelerate the Earth that much.  My point
was that the Earth's motion is insignificant.  I think we already knew
that...

However, the thing that will change significantly is gravitational
pull.  The further an object is away, the less pull it exerts by an
inverse square function.  (On the roof, you do weigh slightly less).
