In a vacuum, the speed of light is always 670,616,629 miles per hour (300,000 kilometers per second). The speed of light changes as it enters a different medium, such as Earth's atmosphere, but the change in speed is essentially negligible.

What is travel time from sun to earth?

Light takes about 8 minutes to travel from Earth to the sun. The sun is about 93 million miles away, so it would take about 177 years to get to the sun in a car traveling at 60 miles per hour, and about 21.5 years to get to the sun in an airplane traveling at 500 miles per hour. (These are just comparisons; cars and airplanes don't travel in outer space.)
