Surface of earth will never move

Explanation:

I’ll give yet another answer based just on the earth itself. The earth as a whole is constantly in motion.

What we stand on, the crust, is fairly solid. If you go deep enough into the ground though, you’ll get through the tectonic plates, and through them is a liquid magma. People have never been able to dig down to the tectonic plates, because the shortest depth is around 6km deep at the bottom of the ocean, to 100s of km at the subduction zones. The subduction zones are where one plate is pushing over or under the next plate to it. They move very slowly, generally 10–40mm per year, but they are still moving. They get stuck together, but keep pushing, and when they slip apart, we feel it in earthquakes, shaking the ground under us.

So, just the plates far under the ground we’re standing on is moving, but when you get even lower it gets hotter and hotter. It gets this way because the deeper you get into the ground, the more the force of gravity is pulling things together, impacting it with more energy. The more energy you have, the more the liquid rock is going to melt, and move. That pressure and that constant moving makes more friction, and makes it even hotter.

Under our feet, all the way to the other side of the planet, the earth is moving, constantly.
