if I fly opposite the direction of the Earth’s rotation at the same speed of the rotation, will I stay in the same time of day as the days pass?

Question

How does time even work?

Answer 1

Yes you would, at least not accounting for the earth’s revolution around the sun. We tend to equate time with where we are in relation to the earth’s rotation (noon being about where the sun is at its highest point, midnight at its lowest) so if you moved to keep the sun at the same relative position, you would keep experiencing that time.
