When you see a galaxy that is 1 billion light years away, the light that's dribbling into your eye
left that galaxy 1 billion years ago, and has been traveling toward you ever since then.
If you just happen to see the galaxy explode or turn blue while you're watching it, you'll know
that it actually exploded or turned blue 1 billion years ago.
Similarly, if the galaxy explodes or turns green tonight, you won't know about that for another
1 billion years from tonight.
One billion light years is about 5,878,700,000,000,000,000,000 miles. (rounded to the nearest hundred trillion miles)

How many light years in a trillion miles?
1 trillion light years = 5.87849981 × 1024 miles.
How long would it take for light to travel in nine years?
One light year is around 10 trillion km or 6 trillion miles. Nine lightyears would be 90 trillion km or 54 trillion miles. You would generally just say nine lightyears though.
How big is a lightyear?
Light can travel about 6 trillion miles in a year, so that distance is called a light-year.
How long in years to travel 1 ght year?
if you're asking "how long in years to travel 1 light year" you would have to know how fast you are traveling. a light year is a measure of distance that's equal to approximately six trillion miles...
How much is one trillion?
Trillion is a contraction of tri-million. The "tri-" prefix implies 3; how that is used as a power depends where you are:On the long scale, based on powers of a million, as used in Europe:1 trillion = (1 million)³ = (10⁶)³ = 10¹⁸ = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 On the short scale, based on powers of a thousand plus one, as used in USA:1 trillion = (1 thousand)³⁺¹ = (10³)⁴ = 10¹² = 1,000,000,000,000
How long is 70 trillion kilometers in miles?
70 trillion km = 43.5 trillion miles (to 3 sf)
How many light years in a trillion miles?
1 trillion light years = 5.87849981 × 1024 miles.
How many miles are in one trillion feet?
1 trillion feet is 189,393,939 miles
How long would it take to go 120 trillion miles in space?
about 300,000 years since 120 trillion miles=approximately 20 light years
How many million is in 1 trillion?
It depends on where you live. In the short scale, 1 trillion = 1,000,000,000,000, which would be 1 million millions. In In the long scale, 1 trillion = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 which would be 1 (long scale) billion millions, or 1 (short scale) trillion millions.
How long take to travel 5.9 trillion miles at 5 miles per second?
Time = Distance/Speed = 1.18 trillion seconds = 37,400 years, approx.
How far can light travel in a light-year?
5.88 Trillion miles 5.88 Trillion miles
How many miles is 15 trillion km?
15 trillion km is 9.32 trillion miles.
How long would take a light to travel 11 trillion miles?
One light year is about 6 trillion miles. So if we calculate the amount of light years, we can calculate the amount of years. In order to figure out the number of light years, we divide 11 by 6, adding trillion to our answer (6 because 1 light year is 6 trillion miles). 11 divided by 6 is about 1.83 (or 1.83 trillion). So, in conclusion, it would take light 1.83 years to travel 11 trillion miles. Another way to solve this is simply calculating the amount of time it would take light to travel 1 trillion miles and multiply that by 11. So you divide 365 (the amount of days in a year) by 6 you get 60. It would take light 60 days for light to travel 1 trillion miles. 60 times 11 is 660, so it would take 660 days (or 1.8 years) for light to travel 11 trillion miles.
What is 39.9 trillion km in miles?
Approx 24.8 trillion miles.
How many miles are 9 trillion kilometers?
5.6 trillion miles.
How long does it take light travel one trillion miles?
Approximately two months.
