One parsec is equivalent to 3.3 light years. 150 parsecs = 150 x 3.3 = 495 light years

the star Yildun is 185 light years away from the sun!
How far are the closest star from earth?
4.2 light years away
Is a star dead by the time its light gets to earth?
No. This is a common misconception. Most of the stars we see in the night sky are no more than a few hundred light years away. The closest star outside the solar system is Proxima Centauri, which is only 4.2 light years away. At such distances the light coming in from those stars left them no more than a few hundred years ago, only 4.2 years ago in the case of Proxima Centauri. No star in our galaxy is more than 75,000 light years away. Most stars last for billions of years, so 75,000 years for a star is not long at all. There are stars in other galaxies far enough away to have died by the time their light reaches us, but they are too far away for us to see them without a powerful telescope.
How far away is the Leo constellation from the earth?
The stars in each constellation are at varying distances from our solar system. The star Wolf 359, one of the nearest stars to Earth (7.78 light-years), is in Leo. Gliese 436, a faint star in Leo about 33 light years away. So to answer your question, the constellation Leo is spread out between 7 to 33 light years away. Light travels about 6 trillion miles in one year, so between 42 trillion and 198 trillion miles away.

What do you use to measure the distance to far away stars?
Light years, parsecs, and kiloparsecs. Light years and parsecs are used to measure distances between neighbouring star system's, kiloparsecs are used to measure distances within a galaxy.
What is the distance modulus for a star that is 1 million parsecs away?
A distance of one million parsecs (approximately 3,262,000 light-years) is commonly denoted by the megaparsec(Mpc).
