Sun is coming up here.



Actually... cool thing to ponder, the Sun doesn't actually rise at all. Instead of "rising in the East, setting in the West", as the earth rotates on its axis, your position on it moves towards the Sun from west to east, at up to 1,040 mph (slower the further you are from the equator).
Relative to what is actually your motion, the Sun appears to rise as you are actually falling towards it because of the curvature of the earth. Sunrise still sounds way better than "me fall" though.
