The student minute light yearas is similar to the light year because they are both light years and measure stuff in space....sorry i know this really doesn't help, but I answered the question to the best of my ability!

Mass similar to our own Milky Way; about a trillion stars; diameter estimated at 140,000 light-years.Mass similar to our own Milky Way; about a trillion stars; diameter estimated at 140,000 light-years.Mass similar to our own Milky Way; about a trillion stars; diameter estimated at 140,000 light-years.Mass similar to our own Milky Way; about a trillion stars; diameter estimated at 140,000 light-years.
(4.06 X 10-8) x (5.8787 x 1012) = 238,680 miles(rounded)That number looks strangely similar to the moon's average distance from earth.Could that be what the questioner was getting at ???
Light travels at 186,000 miles per second. There are 60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour, 24 hours in a day, and 365.26 days in a year. You want to know what 148 light years equals? Just multiply all those numbers together.
1 Parsec = 3.26163626 light years

A 'light-year' is a distance calculated by how far light can travel in one standard year. A 'light-minute' is how far light can travel in one minute. Earth is about 8 light-minutes (93,000,000 miles) from the Sun. 14 light-years in space is going to be about 84 trillion miles, a huuuuge distance!
It is not possible to answer this question without knowing if 57.0 per minute refers to miles per minute, kilometres per minute, light years per minute or microns per minute or whatever.
There are so many zeros in the value of light years when talking about a few light minutes. 1 light minute is 0.000001901 light years People do not like to talk about very small numbers and few know by heart that 1 year = 525948.766 minutes or that 1 year = 8765.81277 hours

Light years and astronomical units are both units of distance.
600 light years is the distance that light travels in 600 years. Light travels at 186,000 miles per second, or 300,000 km per second. There are 60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour, 24 hours in a day, and 365.24 days in a year. Just multiply all those numbers together.
10 X 100000000 light years if the space ship is moving with a speed of 10000000000 km per minute.
If something in space is 10 light years away, we would only observe it as it was 10 years ago, as this is the time light has taken to reach us. A light year is a distance not a time. It is the distance that light travels in a year (about 5865696000000 miles or 9385113600000 Kilometres) so you cannot ask how long ago is 10 light years away. That would be the same as asking how long ago is the bus station away.
Let 'K' be the speed expressed in kilometers per hour.(1K kilometers/hour) x (1 light-year / 9.46073 x 1012 kilometer) x (1 hour / 60 minute) =( 1.76167 x 10-15 K ) light-years per minute (rounded)
Light travels at about 186,000 miles per second.There are 60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour, 24 hours in a day, and 365.24 days in a year. Your target object is 13,200,000,000 light years away.Just multiply all of those numbers together to get your answer.
