By speed · Order from slowest to fastest.

1. A domestic cat at full sprint 49 km/h

   A house cat can outsprint many dogs over short distances, but tires quickly after the burst.

2. A galloping zebra 66 km/h

   No two zebras have the same stripe pattern, which may help them recognise each other and confuse biting flies.

3. A leaping blue marlin 108 km/h

   Marlins can change colour when excited, their stripes lighting up electric blue during a hunt.

4. An F-22 Raptor at top speed 2.4K km/h

   The Raptor can supercruise, flying faster than sound without afterburners, sipping less fuel as it streaks along.

5. A hypersonic missile 9.8K km/h

   Hypersonic weapons fly so fast and low they are extremely hard to track and intercept in time.

6. NASA's Parker Solar Probe 692K km/h

   The fastest human-made object ever, it slingshots around the Sun, dipping into the star's blazing outer atmosphere.
