Space shuttle launch is interesting. 14000 mph needed to break the earths gravity. that is around the same speed the upper atmosphere is traveling with the earth compared to motionless space. so is there a connection between the two? Anything less than that 14000 mph and you would be standing still and never break the bond. A couple mph more and you have just enough to break free.
this is the explanation of the Higgs field... mass comes from the movement... this is fine
but what if you don't move?
EDIT: also I should point out that the standard theory is that if there was no Higgs Field then all particles would move at the speed of light.
and the fantastic concept of how gravity bends space is gone just like that....

But by the mere matching numbers of speed needed to break the bond and how fast the earth atmosphere is moving at that height means there is a more complex answer then just gravity and atmosphere. Gravity and atmosphere is related to spin of the earth rotation.

Besides, what degree did you say you had again?
I think holding orbit means you have to stay on the edge of the earths pull or you would float away.
you know it is an disturbance in the EM field right? that's why no mass and the huge speed ?
I'm talking about mass... Higgs field friction creating it... as some physicists say

And when we decide it will be great to travel to another galaxy we will find that breaking that bond to the galaxy will be like that of earth. We must break the speed difference between space and the galaxy traveling through it. Same thing with the solar system and its bond must be broken to cross the path to another.
And when you start thinking about this and reverse it to cell and how things travel in them it gets interesting seeing the similarities.

again "Basically everything the OP wrote is wrong" ...how comes ??
do I ask the wrong questions ??
answer one so I can gain more knowledge
IGNORANCE, as I understand, is avoiding the truth answer
