How do stars like the sun give us light and how long does it take for that light to arrive on Earth?
Earth - Sun distance (93,000,000 miles) divided by speed of light (186,282 miles per second) equals 8.32 minutes. Some stars we see in the night sky have been gone for eons...the last bits of light they sent our way just haven't arrived yet. As for the light itself, it is merely one of many different forms of energy arriving at the Earth from our sun and countless other stars. It just happens to be a form of energy we can detect and interpret with our eyes. Plants, x-ray telescops, dark objects, and myriad other items in the universe detect the energy in different ways. Great question!
