How long does it take light to travel from Alpha Centaury the nearests star to your sun to your solar system?

4.3 light years===========================Sorry. "Light year" is an answer to "how far", not "how long".Alpha Centauri is about 4.4 light years away from our solar system and everything in it,which means that it takes AC's light about 4.3 years to get here.


How long doessecon closest star take for light from tat star to reach us to earth?

4.37 years. the star is Alpha Centauri ---- That's wrong. The closest star is the sun and it takes 8.3 minutes for light to reach us. when phrased nearest star it can be a trick question.. Alpha Centauri is the nearest star besides the Sun.


Suppose you would want to reach the star Alpha Centauri in 130 years how fast would you have to travel?

Alpha Centauri is approximately 4.37 light-years away from Earth. To reach it in 130 years, you would need to travel at an average speed of about 0.033 light-years per year, or roughly 3.3% of the speed of light. This speed is significantly faster than any current spacecraft, highlighting the challenges of interstellar travel.


The nearest star to Earth is Proxima Centauri which is 4.3 light-years away If light leaves this star in 2020 when will it reach Earth?

If light leaves Proxima Centauri in 2020, it will take 4.3 years to reach Earth. Therefore, the light will arrive on Earth in the year 2024.


How long would it take to get from earth to Alpha Centauri on the fictional starship Voyager?

Voyager's supposed maximum sustainable speed is "warp 9" which is assumed to be ( times the speed of light. Being that Alpha Centauri is 4.37 light years away from our sun then at warp 9 it would take 177.025 days, or approximately 6 months, to reach it. Chief Engineer Nerdberg, signing off.

How many years pass before light from Alpha Centauri reaches earth?

Alpha Centauri is a triple star system. Alpha Centauri A, B & C or Proxima Centauri. Alpha Centauri A & B are 4.37 light years from the Earth whereas Alpha Centauri C is 4.243 light years.

How long does it take for light from centruai?

It takes light approximately 4.3 years to reach our solar system from Alpha Centauri.


How long does it take for light to travel from alpha cenauri to earth?

4.25 years, because it is 4.25 light years away.


How long does it take a starship traveling at half the speed of light to get to Alpha Centauri?

First of all, there has never yet been any such thing known to earth as a starship. If an object left Cape Canaveral at 1/2 the speed of light, and maintained a straight-line course toward the place where Alpha Centauri would be when it got there, it would reach Alpha Centauri after the clock on the launch-pad had ticked off 8.8 years.


Which is the closest star from earth?

The star closest to earth is the sun, at a distance of roughly 93 million miles.Light from the sun reaches us in a little over 8 minutes.The next closest star is Alpha Centauri, about 278,000 times farther away thanthe sun is. Light from Alpha Centauri travels for about 4.4 years to reach us.


How far away is the nearest star to earth not counting the sun?

12.5 light years away :) 73487500000000 miles 118259130907260 kilometers that is the nearest galaxy but the nearest sun is Alpha centauri; it is 44000 Billion km away from earth


The nearest star to Earth is Proxima Centauri which is 4.3 light-years away If light leaves this star in 2020 when will it reach Earth?

If light leaves Proxima Centauri in 2020, it will take 4.3 years to reach Earth. Therefore, the light will arrive on Earth in the year 2024.

How long will it take you to reach Alpha Centauri 4.37 light years away if you are travelling 16000 mph?

As the distance to Alpha Centauri is 4.367 light years then traveling at the speed of light it would take 4.367 years to get there. However due to the effects of special relativity the travelers would experience the trip as instantaneous (i.e. taking no time at all). From the earth if the travelers sent back a message as soon as they arrived, that message would arrive 8.734 years after the travelers departed.


The nearest star beyond the sun is Alpha Centauri which is 4.21016 meters away If you were to receive a radio message from this star today how long ago would it have been seen?

Actually the nearest star (except for the sun) is Proxima Centauri is next at 4.3 light-years from the Earth. It would take 3.4 years at one light-year/year for radio waves to reach Earth from there. This is because the radio waves are travelling in a vacuum and all electromagnetic wave in a vacuum travel at "C" AKA the speed of light.
