It takes approx. 8 and half minutes to reach earth
If light leaves Proxima Centauri in 2020, it will take 4.3 years to reach Earth. Therefore, the light will arrive on Earth in the year 2024.
Light from the sun because all light travels at the same speed, and the sun is the closest star to the earth, so therefore the light from the sun reaches the earth before light from other (further away) stars
4.37 years. the star is Alpha Centauri ---- That's wrong. The closest star is the sun and it takes 8.3 minutes for light to reach us. when phrased nearest star it can be a trick question.. Alpha Centauri is the nearest star besides the Sun.
Light from Venice, like light from any other location on Earth, takes approximately 0.0000000125 seconds to reach an observer on the planet's surface. This is because light travels at a speed of about 299,792 kilometers per second in a vacuum, and the distance from Venice to an observer is relatively negligible. Therefore, the time taken for light to travel from Venice to any point on Earth is essentially imperceptible.
The planet furthest away from Earth is Pluto, which is 2 and three quarters of a billion miles away from Earth. Light takes approximately 9 hours to reach us from it. It is the smallest planet in our Solar System, being classified as a 'dwarf planet', and very cold, with a surface covered mostly in either ice or frozen gases.
approximately 8.33seconds
The nearest star to Earth in the Scorpius constellation is Antares, which is about 550 light years away. This means that light from Antares takes approximately 550 years to reach Earth.
The Sun is nearest star to Earth. Its light takes about 8 min. 20.33 sec. to reach to Earth. Its mine the distance of the Sun is near about 150 million km.
8 minutes 20 seconds for light from the sun. 4.4 years for light from the next nearest star.

If you mean light from the Sun, then it takes eight minutes for the light to reach the Earth.
if you r saying if earth gone out of reach of the sun's lite then the whole planet will be dark and without the sun's light eventually every life form on earth will die until earth will get the sun's light
it does reach the earth in light energy.
12.5 light years away :) 73487500000000 miles 118259130907260 kilometers that is the nearest galaxy but the nearest sun is Alpha centauri; it is 44000 Billion km away from earth
The nearest star to Earth is regarded as the Sun. The light from the Sun takes 8.3 minutes approximately, after calculating the distance of the Sun from Earth and the speed of light. It can be calculated by the formula: Time = Distance / Speed. If you mean the nearest star apart from the Sun, that is "Proxima Centauri". That light from that star takes about 4.22 years to reach us.
the light speed are very fast so light easily reach on earth
