About how long does light travel from the sun to the earth?
Earth's distance from the Sun varies between about 147 and 152 million kilometers. Given the speed of light as 299,792,458 m/sec and the Sun's radius of 696,000 km, this makes the time taken for the journey (from the Sun's surface to the Earth's) between 8.14 and 8.42 minutes. On an average, it is about 8.28 minutes or 8 minutes and 17 seconds.
Moons distance from sun?
The average distance from earth to the moon is 384,400 km(238,900 miles).The average distance from earth to the sun is 150 million km (93,000,000 miles).The moon revolves around earth, so distance to the sun is around 93 million miles (+/- 238,900 miles).
How many millimeters is the sun from the earth?

How long is 14 lightyears?
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!
How many miles does the earth travel round the sun in one day?

How many miles is one revolution around the sun?
That depends on how far you are from it in your orbit. If you're 1 million miles from the center of the sun and travel in a circle, then the length of your orbit is about 6,283,185 miles . If you're 10 million miles from the center of the sun and travel in a circle, then the length of your orbit is about 62,831,853 miles. If you're 93 million miles from the center of the sun, and travel in a circle, and start out in exactly the right place at just exactly the right time, then you'll always be pretty close to the Earth, and the length of your orbit will be about 584,336,234 miles.
How many miles does mars travel around the sun?
889,972,909 miles, based on its average orbital speed and the time taken for one orbit.
How many miles does a comet travel per hour?
depends on the size and how close it is to the sun. the closer to the sun and the smaller the faster. if it is small and far from the sun it will go slower. the closer to the sun the more gravitaional pull.
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.)
