The Earth and it's Axis will be in perfect alignment with the sun and center of our galaxy late tomorrow morning. (Around 10AM-12PM) I just thought that was pretty neat and should be shared.

The sun moves very minorly
Our planet rotates around the sun
It's inevitable every year at one point we'll be aligned with the sun and the center of our galaxy. I'll even go draw something in PAINT.NET if you don't believe me.

I was talking about the Earths axial precession being in alignment with the sun and center of the galaxy, which happens every 26,000 years.

Well, that's obvious, they are forcibly made to intersect each others path every year, if you make three objects rotate eachother going the same speed, do they not not align at one point?
