What is the distance in light years of the sun to earth?

Less than 1 light year. Lots less. It's not a light year away, it's 8.333 light minutes away . Light travels about 5.9 trillion miles in a year, and the sun is only 93 million miles away. The speed of light is 186,000 miles/second, so light from the sun reaches the earth in 500 seconds, or 8 minutes and 20 seconds. So, the sun is about 0.0000158 light years from the earth.

Which planet would get the most light?

The planet Mercury. At a distance of 28½ to 43 million kilometers from the Sun, it is only about a third as far from the Sun as Earth and receives commensurately higher solar radiation. At its closest to the Sun, Mercury receives heat and light ten times more intense that on the Earth, that would be about 13 kW per square metre. Seem from the back of Mercury, the part that faces away fom the Sun, the Earth would look like a bright planet with a dimmer object, the Moon, up to about 0.15º from it at maximum.

How far are the planets from the sun in light years?

The Earth's distance from the Sun varies slightly, since Earth's orbit is not a perfect circle.Earth's closest distance (perihelion) occurs in early January each year when it is approximately 91,445,000 miles (147,166,000 km) from the sun.Earth's farthest distance (aphelion) occurs in early July each year when it is approximately 94,555,000 miles (152,171,000 km) from the sun.The distance is one AU (astronomical unit) from the sun. One AU is 93 million miles, which is 8.3 light minutes.
