answer:The light of Antares reaches earth in 600 liht years.
around 2.16 light years
If you mean the star Kepler-11, it is at a distance of about 2000 light-years.
If I were able to travel at the speed of light, I would arrive at Rigel instantaneously, from my point of view. It would seem longer to you as an observer on earth. Rigel is estimated to be between 700 and 900 light years from earth, so between 700 and 900 years would elapse on earth before my instantaneous arrive there.
They are about 25.6 light years apart in the earths sky.
Antares is approximately 600 light years from the Sun

Antares (Alpha Scorpii) is a red supergiant star in the constellation Scorpius.It is approximately 600 light years from us.
The star Antares is approximately 600 light years away from our solar system. See the related link for more information.
It's highly unlikely. Antares is not likely to go supernova for at least a million years. However, because of it's distance from us - 600 light years, it may have already gone supernova and we just haven't seen it yet.
Antares is a red supergiant star, and is estimated to be 12 million years old. Our sun, on the other hand, is about 4.6 billion years old, making it older than Antares.
Antares -- 604 light-years distant, magnitude 1.05, an "M" class star, cooler than our Sun.
It is a difference of scale. Interplanetary means between planets; it takes a ray of light minutes or hours to go from a planet to another planet. Intergalactic means between galaxies; it takes a ray of light hundreds of thousands of years, or even millions of years, to travel that distance.
The difference is six years.
A decade is 10 years. A millennium is 1000 years. The difference is 990 years.
Stars are not measured in light years. The distance between them is.
Light Years.
