One my favs to make:
This vid shows how fast each planet physically moves through space relative to eachother. Close to the sun you necessarily have to be moving fast to escape the suns pull! Relative rotations (10hrs/sec) & tilts are also accurate

In the above I showed the physical motion of each planet through space
Below let's take a look at *completed orbits* per time. The inner planets have the fastest orbital speeds AND shortest distance to travel so the orbit counter is extremely fast...

And just to add a related thing... while orbiting fast enough stops you falling into an object, traveling too fast leads to your spiraling away.
Take our Moon, for example:
