The distance between Earth and Venus varies as both take a different amount of time to orbit the Sun. Even at its furthest distance from us, it would be less than 2 light seconds away. At its closest it would be about one seventh of a light second from us.
Light always travels at 299 792 485 metres per second in a vacuum.
The closest venus comes to earth is 38 000 000 000 metres.
The furthest venus gets from earth is 261 000 000 000 metres.
So light will take at the quickest 126.8 seconds, and at the longest 870.6 seconds.
I might be wrong but light year is how far light can travel in one whole year. Venus is not that far away. Just for comparison it takes the suns light 8 minute to get to Earth so light is very fast. So yeh, i dont think Venus is a light uear awayVenus is, depending on it place relative to the Earth in their orbits around the Sun, from 3 to 20 light minutes away or 0.0000057 ly to 0.000038 ly
Yes, they travel some fast!
At light speed it would take 20 to 40 minutes going from earth, and 50 minutes going from the sun.
It orbits fairly quickly; a Venus year is only about 224 Earth days. It spins very slowly; one "day" is 243 Earth-days!
Light cannot travel around the Earth, since light travels at a straight line and the Earth is round. The speed of light is 300,000 kilometers per second.

Well Venus keeps stopping and starting and crashing because its where women come from right? so its pretty fast when it should be slow and really slow when it should be fast. good question by the way.
no it's slow but faster than earth
Speed of light doesn't travel. Light travels.The speed of light doesn't vary depending on the planet; it may, however, vary depending what it goes through. For example, the speed of light in a vacuum is 300,000 km/second; the speed of light in glass is about 2/3 of that value.

Copper is opaque to light - light can not travel though it.
About 186,000 miles per hour or 300,000 kilometers per hour.
It depends on how fast you are travelling.
light takes approximately 8 minutes to travel from the sun to the earth. even though it is traveling extremely fast, the earth is about 93million miles away from the sun, so if you think about it 8 minutes is pretty quick
This is my calculation: 8 min & ~19-20-25 (for different approximations) seconds.
There's no answer to this question; theoretically a craft could travel a centimeter per century and still reach Venus ... eventually.
