Boeing uses the earths rotation with SEA LAUNCH, they deploy commercial payloads via rocket at the earths equator to get a more accurate/TRUE launch and take advantage of the extra force at the equator versus 30-40 degrees north...

SEA LAUNCH hangs out near the Queen Mary in Long Beach and is a big freaking mobile rocket launcher that gets towed around the ocean...
